    What You’ll Need

    Ingredient Notes and Substitutions

    • avocado – when choosing avocados for this recipe, pick each one up and gently press on the skin. Ripe avocados should have a little give – leave a hint of a fingerprint – but still feel firm and not squishy.
    • cherry tomatoes – pick cherry or grape tomatoes with firm, taut skin and deep red color. Alternatively, if you can get them on the vine, even better!
    • seeds – using a variety of seeds will give you the most health benefits. Suggestions include pepitas, sunflower seeds, and chia seeds.

    How to Make This Recipe

    Simply layer 4 pieces of toast with mashed avocado seasoned with sea salt and pepper to taste, nutritional yeast, pepitas and cherry tomatoes. Serve immediately for breakfast or a light snack. Soooooo easy peasy!

    Serving Suggestions

    The sky’s the limit on what you can add to this vegan avocado toast, including:

    • chia seeds
    • sunflower seeds
    • chickpeas
    • sliced red onion
    • sliced radish
    • chopped cilantro or parsley
    • fresh basil
    • fresh lemon juice
    • vegan parmesan cheese

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How can I keep avocado from turning brown if I have leftovers?

    To keep avocados from turning brown, add some sea salt and lemon juice and give it a stir. This won’t keep them from turning brown forever, but it will hinder the process.

    Can I store leftover avocado in the refrigerator?

    For best results, serve recipe immediately. Storing in the refrigerator eventually turns the avocado brown.
