Notes

  • Use citrus juice to enhance flavor and prevent browning.
  • Choose sturdy bread to hold the toppings without becoming soggy.
  • Customize with protein or spice for added texture and nutrition.
  • Avocado toast is best served fresh; avoid storing once assembled.
  • Use plastic wrap directly on the surface of mashed avocado to minimize browning if storing briefly.
