Ingredients

1 avocado ripe, medium-size
1 teaspoon lemon juice freshly squeezed
salt and pepper to taste
2 slices bread toasted
1 tomato medium-sized, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon crushed pepper

Instructions

Cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the avocado flesh into a small bowl. You can leave it chunky or make it smooth. You can peel the skin from each quarter or scoop the green part with a spoon. It is said that peeling the skin will allow more nutrients to remain since they are concentrated in the part that is nearest to the skin.
Mash the avocado with a fork until you reach your desired consistency.
Add one teaspoon of fresh lemon juice. You can add more or less lemon juice if you like. This is the amount that works for me.
Add a little salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes to the mashed avocado. Mix well.
Toast two slices of bread to your preferred level of crispiness. I like it when my bread is golden brown.
Evenly spread the mashed avocado mixture over each slice of toasted bread.
Place the thin slices of tomato on top of the mashed avocado. You can use any type of raw tomatoes, such as , heirloom tomatoes, Roma tomatoes or grape tomatoes.
Optional Toppings:
If you like it spicy, add more red pepper flakes.
For extra protein, top with a poached or fried egg.
Crumbled feta cheese adds a creamy element.
Goat cheese or fresh mozzarella goes well, too.
Instead of lemon juice, you can add a little bit of lime juice.
You can put some fresh microgreens on top and sprinkle them with balsamic vinegar.
Or add some fresh cilantro or fresh basil if it's summer, so yum!
A drizzle of extra virgin olive oil can add a luxurious touch and enhance the overall richness of the dish.
Adding cut green onions to your avocado toast with tomato is a fantastic idea.
Green onions, also known as scallions, bring a mild onion flavor and a pop of vibrant color.
Place the finished avocado toast with tomatoes on a plate and enjoy it immediately while the bread is still warm.
