Ready Time

Yields

5 servings

Ingredients

5 ripe avocados, halved and pitted
10-12 radishes, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon flaky sea salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
10 slices of bread (whole wheat or white)
2 tablespoons olive oil
Optional: salt, red pepper flakes, feta cheese or chopped fresh herbs for topping

Instructions

Mash the avocado halves in a large bowl until you get a creamy consistency. Add the lemon juice, flaky sea salt, and black pepper to the bowl and mix well.

Toast the bread until it’s lightly browned and crispy.

You can do this by baking it in the oven at 350°F for about 5-7 minutes or by grilling it for a few minutes on each side. Spread a generous amount of the mashed avocado mixture onto each toasted bread slice.

You’ll need about 1-2 tablespoons of the mixture for each slice.

Top the avocado with 2-3 slices of radish. You can arrange them in a pattern or just place them on top, whatever you prefer! Drizzle about 1/4 teaspoon of olive oil over the radish slices.

This will bring out the flavors of the radish and add a bit of sheen to the dish.

If you’re feeling fancy, sprinkle some salt, red pepper flakes, crumbled feta cheese, or chopped fresh herbs on top of the radish slices. Serve the toast slices immediately and enjoy the creamy avocado, crunchy radish, and crispy bread combo!

Notes

Make sure to choose ripe avocados for the best flavor and creamy texture. If your avocados aren’t ripe, you can speed up the ripening process by placing them in a paper bag with an apple or banana for a few days.

Use a variety of radishes for different flavors and colors.

Cherry belle radishes add a sweet and peppery flavor, while black radishes have a more robust and earthy taste. To get the perfect toast, keep an eye on the bread while it’s toasting.

You want it to be lightly browned and crispy, but not burnt.

If you’re not a fan of raw radish, you can lightly sauté them in a pan with some olive oil before adding them to the toast. Don’t overdo it with the olive oil – a little goes a long way.

You want to enhance the flavors of the radish and avocado, not overpower them.

Feel free to customize your toast with your favorite toppings. Chopped fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro add a bright and fresh flavor, while crumbled feta cheese adds a salty and tangy taste.

These toast slices are perfect for a quick breakfast or as a snack for a party.

You can also pair them with a bowl of soup or a salad for a light lunch.
