Ingredients
- 2 Ripe avocados
- 4 Whole grain bread slices
- 4 slices Bacon strips
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Start by cooking the bacon: heat a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the bacon strips and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until crispy. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
Step 2
While the bacon is cooking, prepare the avocado spread: cut the ripe avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Add the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mash the avocado with a fork until smooth but slightly chunky.
Step 3
Toast the bread slices in a toaster or under a broiler until they are golden and crisp.
Step 4
Drizzle the toasted bread with a light coating of olive oil.
Step 5
Spread the mashed avocado evenly onto each slice of toasted bread.
Step 6
Break each cooked bacon strip in half and place two halves on top of each avocado toast.
Step 7
Sprinkle a pinch of red pepper flakes over each toast for a bit of heat.
Step 8
Serve immediately and enjoy!
