Tips for picking avocado
I am no avocado expert, but the process I use to pick avocados makes my life so much easier especially when I am craving avocado toast and what to eat it the same day. What I’ve learned over the year is that It’s all about color and firmness. Go for dark avocados, and slightly squeeze them. If it’s too soft, leave it at the store, it’s about to go bad soon. If it’s too hard and you can’t even squeeze it, feel free to take it home but it’s not ready for same-day eating. Once you squeeze it, and can feel a little squish (not a lot) all around or both sides of the avocado then that is the one.
If you still are unsure ask a store associate in the produce section and they will be more than happy to help you out.
Next, gather all the other toppings you will like to add to your avocado toast. The best thing about this toast is that there is no end to what toppings you can add to your toast. You can add anything and everything that you please. This recipe will be simple, but feel free to add additional toppings to the ones below.
Serving Size 2 slices of Avocado toast
- 2 slices of bread of your choice
- 1 Avocado
- 1 Lemon or Lime
- A cup or hand full of arugula leaves
- Or whatever green plant you desire
- Red, Yellow, and Orange Cherry Tomatoes.

Now that you have all of your ingredients let’s get started on making the best tasting most affordable avocado toast ever.
Step 1: Cut your avocado in half. Rember the avocado nut is in the middle. Cut vertical instead of horizontal. Once your avocado is open, scoop the nut out and throw it away or keep it to grow your own avocado. Scoop the avocado into a bowl and begin to mush it with a fork.
Step 2: Slice your lemon or lime in half and squeeze half of the lemon or lime into a bowl and continue mushing it. Remember the more juice you squeeze into the bowl the avocado won’t be as thick.
Step 3: Toast your toast in your preferred settings.
Step 4: Spread your avocado on your toast, and place all of your favorite toppings.
Step 5: Transfer your toast to your plate, and nom nom nom, enjoy!
