All Green Avocado Toast with Topping Bar Ideas

February 15, 2016 by http://luxewithkids.com Candace Leave a Comment

Avocado Toast is all the rage these days in hip cafes across the country, and for good reason: it’s easy and quick to make, nutritious, versatile and best of all – it’s delicious! If you’re on the lookout for family friendly green recipes for St. Patrick’s Day, this one is for you. Let’s GO GREEN!

The best part about Avocado Toast is that it takes ten minutes (or less) to prepare and makes a delicious and nutritious breakfast, lunch, or snack. The whole family can get in on the preparation when you have a selection of toppings. If you have young children, it’s a fun activity to start at the grocery store by color spotting green fruits and vegetables, and by including them in the process, it’s encouraging your children to try a new food.

To prepare the base of the recipe, the avocado mash, simply halve and de-pit two ripe avocados into a bowl. Using a fork, mash the avocados with the juice of one lime and a teaspoon of coarse salt. Give it a taste, and add more lime juice and/or salt depending on your preference. I like a lot of lime in my avocado mash. Generously spread the avocado mash onto thin slices of lightly toasted bread. I prefer a seedy, whole grain bread that I find at my local bakery.

Now comes the fun part: customizing it your own way! Offer the green toppings sliced and diced into bite-sized pieces. The avocado mash base is simple and mild in flavor, so you can really experiment with a variety of toppings. Have fun mixing and matching sweet and spicy toppings, like apple and jalapeño. Add a bit of crunchy texture with a sugar snap pea or scallion, or try an Italian theme by combining spinach and pesto. The possibilities are endless!
