Elevate your breakfast or brunch with this delicious Avocado and Smoked Salmon Toast. This simple yet flavorful recipe combines creamy avocado, rich smoked salmon, and a hint of lemon zest on a slice of multi-grain bread. Perfect for a quick, nutritious, and gourmet meal to start your day.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Start by toasting the multi-grain bread slice to your desired level of crispiness. Use a toaster or toaster oven for about 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While the bread is toasting, cut the avocado in half and remove the pit.
- Scoop out the flesh from one half of the avocado and place it in a bowl.
- Mash the avocado with a fork until you achieve a creamy texture. You can leave it a bit chunky if that’s your preference.
- Once the bread is toasted, spread the mashed avocado evenly over the top of the slice using a butter knife or the back of a spoon.
- Layer the smoked salmon evenly on top of the avocado spread, making sure to cover the entire toast.
- Sprinkle the black pepper over the salmon for added flavor.
- Finally, zest a lemon and sprinkle the fresh lemon zest over the top of the toast. This will add a bright, citrusy note that complements the creamy avocado and rich smoked salmon.
- Your avocado and smoked salmon toast with lemon zest is now ready to serve. Enjoy immediately, perhaps with a freshly brewed cup of coffee or tea.
Tips:
- Choose a ripe avocado for the best creamy texture. You can tell it's ripe when it yields slightly to gentle pressure.
- Toast your multi-grain bread to your desired level of crispiness for an added crunch.
- For an extra burst of flavor, you can drizzle a little olive oil over the toast before adding the toppings.
- Feel free to add other toppings like capers, cherry tomatoes, or a sprinkle of fresh herbs such as dill or chives.
- If you prefer a bit of heat, add a dash of hot sauce or some red pepper flakes on top.
In just a few minutes, you can enjoy a vibrant and nutritious toast that not only satisfies your taste buds but also provides essential nutrients. The combination of healthy fats from the avocado, lean protein from the smoked salmon, and the fresh zing of lemon zest makes this Avocado and Smoked Salmon Toast a must-try recipe for any time of the day.
