Ingredients
  

2 slices of whole-grain or sourdough bread

1 medium ripe avocado

1 medium tomato, sliced (heirloom or beefsteak recommended for best flavor)

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Salt, to taste

Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for a spicy kick)

Fresh basil leaves, torn, for garnish

Balsamic glaze, for drizzling (optional)

Instructions
 

Toast the Bread: Start by toasting the slices of bread. You can use a toaster or a skillet over medium heat. Toast until they are golden brown and crispy, which will enhance the texture and flavor.

    Prepare the Avocado: While the bread is toasting, slice the avocado in half, carefully remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. Use a fork to mash the avocado until you achieve your preferred creaminess. Mix in the lemon juice and olive oil, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

      Slice the Tomato: Rinse the tomato under cool water and slice it into even rounds. If you’re using heirloom tomatoes, a mix of colors will add visual appeal to your dish.

        Assemble the Toast: Once the bread is perfectly toasted, take a generous amount of the mashed avocado mixture and spread it evenly over each slice.

          Top with Tomatoes: Artfully arrange the tomato slices on top of the avocado spread. You can choose to lay them flat or fan them out for added style.

            Season and Garnish: If you like a bit of heat, sprinkle the tomato slices with red pepper flakes. Add a touch more salt and freshly ground black pepper if desired. Tear fresh basil leaves and sprinkle them over the top to add a burst of flavor and color.

              Drizzle (Optional): For an enhanced sweet and tangy flavor, drizzle a little balsamic glaze over the finished toasts just before serving.

                Serve Immediately: If desired, cut the toast diagonally for easier eating. Serve with additional lemon wedges on the side for an extra zesty touch.
