Avocado toast has been trending, and for good reason! It's nutritious; delicious; and simple to make. Thanks to this combo, you can find it at a lot of restaurants now, which makes for the perfect brunch option! Toast is one of my go to's for breakfast. Adding fruits; veggies; various healthy fats; and protein, can be a great way to add flavor and get more nutrients in. You can also pick and choose so you can satisfy both those sweet and salty cravings. Below you will find some recipes for what I call "elevated toast". I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
