Ingredients
Scale
Garlic Lemon Dressing
- 1 clove garlic
- Juice from 1 lemon
- Flaky sea salt, to taste
Toast and Avocado
- 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 slices whole wheat sourdough bread
- 1 ripe avocado
- Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Prepare Garlic Lemon Dressing: Grate the garlic clove into a small bowl and pour the lemon juice over it. Add a pinch of flaky sea salt and stir the mixture until the salt dissolves fully, creating a zesty dressing.
- Toast the Bread: Heat 2 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Place the sourdough slices in the skillet and toast them, flipping often, until both sides develop an even golden brown crust. This should take about 10 minutes. Remove the toasted bread and transfer it to a plate.
- Prepare the Avocado: Slice the avocado in half lengthwise and carefully remove the pit. Peel each half, then place one half cut side down on a cutting board and make lengthwise slices about 1/4 inch thick. Fan these slices over one slice of the toasted bread. Gently mash the avocado into the bread to cover the surface entirely. Repeat this process with the second avocado half and slice of bread.
- Assemble and Season: Spoon the prepared garlic lemon dressing evenly over the avocado-covered toast. Generously season with flaky sea salt and sprinkle with a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes for a touch of heat. Serve immediately to enjoy the freshest flavor and crisp texture.

- Whole wheat sourdough adds a pleasant nutty flavor and extra fiber.
