The Perfect Avocado Toast

Once upon a time avocado spread and toasted bread came together to form the most Perfect Avocado Toast ever. But they didn’t last long coz I ate them all. And I lived happily ever after. The end.

This recipe may seem basic, but core skills need to be mastered too. So I just had to put this one up here as well.

And this picture looks really pretty too. I couldn’t just let it go to waste. The combination of colors go so well together. Hey that’s just like the combination of flavors and textures in this recipe!

Total millennial thing, I know, but I fall into that category so …. join me?
