# What You Need:

→ Bread

01 - 12 slices sourdough or multigrain bread

→ Avocado Spread

02 - 4 ripe avocados
03 - 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
04 - 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
05 - 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

→ Toppings

06 - 6 radishes, thinly sliced
07 - 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
08 - 1/2 cup crumbled feta or goat cheese
09 - 1/4 cup toasted pumpkin seeds
10 - 1/4 cup microgreens or baby arugula
11 - 4 hard-boiled eggs, sliced
12 - 1/4 cup pickled red onions
13 - 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
14 - 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, optional
15 - Flaky sea salt, to taste
16 - Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
17 - Lemon wedges, for serving

# Directions:

01 - Toast bread slices in batches until golden and crisp. Arrange them on a large serving board or platter.
02 - Halve, pit, and scoop the avocados into a bowl. Add lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mash until creamy but still slightly chunky.
03 - Spread a generous layer of avocado mash onto each toast, or serve the mash in a bowl for guests to assemble their own.
04 - Arrange the toppings—radishes, cherry tomatoes, cheeses, pumpkin seeds, microgreens, egg slices, and pickled onions—in small bowls or directly on the board.
05 - Drizzle olive oil over the avocado toasts. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes, flaky salt, and black pepper as desired. Garnish with microgreens or arugula. Serve with lemon wedges for squeezing.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It looks like you spent hours in the kitchen but honestly takes less time than making individual eggs.
  • Everyone gets exactly what they want, which means fewer people picking around their plate and more actual enjoyment.
  • The board becomes the centerpiece, so your table looks alive and intentional without you doing much extra work.
02 -
  • Avocados brown fast once they're cut, so if you're making this ahead, keep them whole and only mash them 15 minutes before people arrive—the lemon juice slows browning but doesn't stop it completely.
  • Toasting the bread makes all the difference because it gives you something textural that can handle wet toppings without turning into mush, and it tastes so much better than soft bread.
03 -
  • Rub your warm toast with a garlic clove right after toasting if you want an extra layer of flavor that feels special without being obvious.
  • Keep everything cold except the toast—chill your topping bowls and even the serving board in the fridge for 15 minutes so temperatures stay interesting and the board lasts longer without things getting soggy.
