If you’re an avocado toast person, you might be tired of the jokes that paint you as some kind of hipster who shuns pancakes. But hat tip to you friend; you know what’s up. Avocado toast is actually quite good when done right. I’m good with a little salt and pepper, and I love it with a little spice of sliced shallots. But I have to say, this Strawberry Avocado Toast is the perfect mix of sweet, savory, and fresh!
And because you are packing so much into one slice, it’s a full serving all on its own. Instead of having two boring pieces of toast for breakfast, you can have one slice topped with this most luscious combo of flavors, with enough fats in the avocado to satiate you. I mean, you will probably want two slices because it’s so darn good, but you could have just one.
Most people don’t think of combining strawberries and avocado on toast, but it’s not as weird as it sounds, and with the honey, it’s almost like dessert! In fact, with this trio of strawberries, avocado, and thinly sliced shallots, you won’t know if it’s for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or all three! What you may know, is that you’ll want a second helping.
Nutritious avocado brings healthy fats to the table, while fresh strawberries and raw honey bring the sweet antioxidants. If you grow microgreens, this is the perfect opportunity to use them.
