FOODIE FRIDAY: SEEDY AVOCADO TOAST

Okay, okay. You may think this is a strange post. "Come on Bails— how hard could avocado toast be?!"

It's not. That's the point!

I'm big into avocado toast but not in the I'm-a-milennial-and-can't-afford-a-house kinda way. More like in the homemade, buy-one-bag-of-seeds-and-you're-good-for-months way. For those who may not know, I've been a vegetarian for over a decade. The math just barely adds up, yes. I was in middle school when I decided I would no longer eat meat. I went through some trials and tribulations but here I am thriving at age 25! A friend recently reached out to me asking for some veggie recipes so I decided I would continue on my Foodie Friday series where I’ll post every now and then with some of my tried and true veghead meals. First up? An avocado toast with two different salts and eight kinds of seeds.

Alrighty, here's what you're gonna need:

  • A good sourdough bread. The more local, the better, although my Safeway makes a fine loaf!
  • Coarse salt— I actually use two. A kosher salt and Maldon Sea Salt Flakes (they are worth it, trust me)
  • Black pepper
  • Crushed red pepper flake
  • Nutritional Yeast
  • Chia Seed
  • Hemp Seed
  • Trader Joe's Super Seed & Ancient Grain blend
  • An avocad
There's really not anything else to say. The good info was the blend of ingredients listed above! Toast your bread and smush on your avocado with a fork and layer up the toppings. It's sooooo good. Wanna add a egg? Easy. Hot sauce? Done. It's so fancy yet so easy and the perfect base to add on even more.

I asked my Instagram followers last month to share their go-to avocado toast toppings and I got some solid answers but some really wild ones as well. Let me know below what your personal go-to is!
