HOW TO MAKE SMASHED AVOCADO TOAST:

Cobb salad is one of my all-time favorite dishes to order at a restaurant, and I knew the ingredients would be delicious on toast. I love to put a new twist on the classics. 

Start by mashing an avocado slice on a piece of bread. That’s your base. Top with deli meat and pick your Cobb Salad toppings from there!

I love chopped bacon, cherry tomatoes, crumbled blue cheese, and finishing it off with a sprinkle of chopped green onions. So much flavor! Don’t you just want to dig in?

In general, yes. It contains higher fat and calories, but it is good fat and will keep you fuller longer than “empty calorie” foods. Avocado toast also contains a huge number of useful nutrients and antioxidants (especially when made on whole grain bread).

What does smashed avocado mean? 

Smashed avocado refers to putting pieces of whole, plain avocado on the toast and using a fork or knife to just spread it around, smashing it a bit. It is not mixed with anything. Once the toast is covered, you top it with other ingredients or seasonings.
