Avocado Toast

My mother was recently confirmed with Diabetes & I had to help her transition from typical Indian food to a healthier Paleo diet. The avocado toast was our first attempt at transition. While she still ate regular bread, we tried to get accustomed to the avocado flavour.

Ingredients

  • 1 Whole Avocado
  • Salt & Pepper
  • 4-5 Cherry Tomatoes
  • 2 Tbsp Olive Oil
  • 2 Slices of Bread, Toasted

Preparation

Prep: 15 minutes
Cooking: 10 minutes

  1. In a baking tray or microwave bowl, add the cherry tomatoes, drizzle with olive oil & season with salt pepper. Now, bake it at 150 degrees or microwave until tomatoes are cooked.
  2. Meanwhile, cut open the avocado in half & scoop it into a bowl. Mash the avocado using a fork & drizzle some olive oil to make an instant hummus. Season with salt & pepper.
  3. Once the tomatoes are cooked. Spread the avocado hummus onto the toasted bread & top it off with roasted tomatoes.

I’m a food lover from Mumbai. My passion is to take dishes, sweet or savoury from around the world and try to recreate them with an added twist. In my free time, you’ll see me binge on cooking shows or reading about recipes. I have an immense passion for both science and cooking, both involve experiments. For me, it’s all about the WHYs behind every ingredient, every dish. I am not a recipe follower. It's about trying ways to squeeze out as much flavour I can from each ingredient. Through my handle @Messy.Plate, I want to take everyone through my journey of cooking - from the research about the science that goes behind every dish to its final look.
