Well, this may seem silly to post about something as simple as avocado toast. However, hear me out before you dismiss this. There are so many variations of this and I dare say, this is the best or certainly one of the best I’ve ever had. It is insanely quick and simple to pull together and better than anything you get in a restaurant.

Now, as we all know, the simpler the recipe, the higher quality the ingredients should be. This is no exception, especially when it comes to the bread. If you don’t make your own sourdough, make sure to get a good quality loaf for this. However, if you’re feeling adventurous, you could always give it a try. Although there definitely is a learning curve, the effort is well worth it.

INGREDIENTS
2 slices fresh sourdough bread
1 ripe avocado
2 oz. goat cheese or marinated goat cheese
extra virgin olive oil
pinch of crushed red pepper
fresh ground pepper
kosher salt, any sea salt or fleur de sal

DIRECTIONS
First, soften the goat cheese a bit. Then, mash the avocado with a fork, add a drizzle of the olive oil, a pinch of red pepper, salt and pepper to taste. Stir to combine well. Alternatively, you could just slice the avocado, as opposed to mashing it. The choice is yours.

Next toast or grill the sourdough, to your liking, spread some of the goat cheese on the warm toast and then top with the avocado mixture. Finally, top it off with another few drops of the olive oil and a small sprinkle of the salt. Voilà, you’re done! Honestly, this is my all time favorite breakfast, I just never tire of it.
