5 Ways to Eat Avocado Toast

"Did you know that avocado is a fruit? In fact, unlike the other types of fruits, it is packed with healthy fats, instead of carbohydrates."

Five Creative Ways to Eat Avocado Toast

Avocadoes are incredibly nutritious which contain many wonderful vitamins and minerals. They are rich in fiber as

well as other beneficial vitamins and minerals, such as potassium, vitamin K, vitamin C,

vitamins B5 and B6, folate, and vitamin E. It may not be very surprising that people who eat

avocados are generally healthier than people who don’t. One research study found that people.

who consumed avocadoes had reduced cholesterol levels and lower BMI-s compared to the

people who didn’t (Gunnars, 2018).

How to Add Avocadoes into Your Diet?

The regular butter and margarine toasts can be substituted with avocadoes to easily

sneak in additional vitamins and minerals into your diet (Semeco, 2019). If you enjoy

avocado toast, there are very simple, quick, and easy ways to prepare them (“Easy Avocado

on Toast Recipes,”2021). But what if you are tired of regular avocado toasts?

Here are five creative ways to eat your avocado toast:

1) Spicy crab avocado toast

Toast a slice of farmhouse white loaf bread and spread it with half of one mashed

avocado with lime juice, salt, and seasoning. Top your toast with white crab meat,

lime juice, chopped red chili, and coriander (“Easy Avocado on Toast

Recipes,”2021).

2) Smoked salmon avocado toast

Top your avocado toast with smoked salmon, lemon, mint, chili, and tomato

dressing. Additionally, add black pepper, chives, and enjoy (“Easy Avocado on

Toast Recipes,”2021).

3) Avocado marmite dippers

Use seeded wholemeal toasted slices and spread them with butter and marmite.

Mash half of an avocado with sea salt, and spread on both of the toast slices

equally. Slice them into long slices, and enjoy with soft-boiled eggs for dipping

(“Easy Avocado on Toast Recipes,”2021).

4) Cottage cheese avocado toast

This version of an avocado toast is “Heart-Check Certified” (“American Heart

Association,” n.d.).

First, toast slices of whole-wheat bread. Then top them with cottage cheese and

avocado slices. Finally, season it with chipotle chili powder, and you are done!

5) Italian Caprese avocado toast

Topping the avocado toast with the ingredients of the Caprese salad can be very

quick and easy (“American Heart Association,” n.d.).

Spread your toast with mashed avocado, basil, and pepper. Top with halved cherry

tomatoes and mozzarella cheese. Drizzle it with half a teaspoon of vinegar, and

decorate it with basil leaves.

Here are some bonus tips for you:

Match the toppings with the type of bread for your toast

If you are using avocado mixed with tomatoes, chili, and coriander, then try bread

types that have stronger tastes, such as sourdough and rye bread (“Easy Avocado on

Toast Recipes,”2021). On the other hand, if the toppings include smoked salmon, then

using seeded bagels is a better idea. For toppings like bacon and chorizo,

walnut, whole meal, or cornbread.

Pick the avocado type you like

There are a variety of avocadoes you can use for your toasts, but the most common

type which you can find in almost all the supermarkets is the Hass avocado (“Easy

Avocado on Toast Recipes,”2021). Other types of avocadoes can have different

colors, shapes, and sizes. Despite the type that you decide to choose, pick the riper

avocadoes as they are great for a toast.

Make sure you know how to toast the bread

Toasting may sound easy but some bread types need more time to be properly toasted

(“Easy Avocado on Toast Recipes,”2021). For instance, rye bread requires to be run

through two toasting cycles because it’s made with whole grains.
