Avocado Smash on Toast

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

I love avocado smash. It makes me think of being in the sunshine, because the first time I had it, I was on holiday in Australia.  So every time I have it, I am transported back to Oz!

Avocados are an incredibly nutritious food. They are high in mono-unsaturated fats, so that does put the calories up, but eaten within your calorie allowance, these healthy fats, are good for lowering cholesterol and keeping our hearts healthy.

Avocado smash is simple to make and the taste is so zingy and vibrant. It really is sensational. This dish makes a perfect breakfast or lunch, and you can make a batch of smash up in advance, and it will keep in an air tight tub for a couple of days.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 an avocado per person
  • slice of granary or multiseed loaf per person
  • handful of cherry tomatoes per person
  • sprinkle of chilli flakes
  • 1 garlic clove, finely chopped (per avocado)
  • teaspoon of lime or lemon juice (fresh or from a bottle from the baking aisle)

Instructions

To make the smash

  1. Slice the avocado round the middle, separate and take the stone out.
  2. Remove the skin and cut into chunks.
  3. Finely chop the garlic clove
  4. In a bowl, mash the avocado and the garlic together
  5. Add your chilli flakes according to how spicy you like things (chilli flakes are more powerful than chilli powder, so go easy, you can always add more if you need to) and your lime or lemon juice and mix well.

On the grill

  1. Slice your cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the grill with your bread

Assemble

  1. Take your toast and spread half of the avocado smash that you have prepared on it.
  2. Add your grilled tomatoes on top.
  3. Serve

Notes

To make this even more incredible you can add a poached egg on top for an extra 70 calories.

If your calories allow, add extra toast or avocado, if you fancy it! Each slice of multiseed loaf is approx 135 calories and half an avocado is approx 80 calories.
