On to the main course!
Instead of a recipe, I am going to tell you my process. First gather up bread for toasting, 1 small avocado, 1 T mayo and the juice of 1/2 of a lime plus salt and pepper. Peel the avocado, cut in half. Smash 1/2 of the avocado and slice the other half. Sprinkle some of the lime juice on the avocado to keep from browning. Mix the mayo with the lime juice. If the mixture is too runny, add more mayo until the right consistency. Toast bread. Remove the toast immediately and spread the mayo. Next spread the mashed avocado and top that with the avocado slices. Sprinkle salt and pepper to taste.
This is my basic recipe for avocado toast. Here are some of my favorite variations:
Sliced hardboiled egg to the top.
Add chopped red onion to the top.
Chopped bacon to the top.
Fried egg to the top
Leftover grilled corn on the cob to the top.
Goat cheese sprinkled on top.
Sliced smoked salmon and a sprinkling of dill on top.
The varieties are endless! One of my friends loves her avocado toast with sliced tomatoes and fresh mozzarella with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. Doesn't that sound delicious?
