Begin by slicing the avocado in half. Remove the pit and scoop the flesh into a small mixing bowl.
Mash the avocado using a fork until smooth, leaving some small chunks for texture.
Add lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes to the mashed avocado. Mix well to combine the flavors.
Slice the cherry tomatoes into halves and finely chop the fresh cilantro or parsley. Set them aside for later use.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly toast the bread slices until they are golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Once the bread is toasted, remove from heat and drizzle each slice with a small amount (1/2 teaspoon per slice) of extra-virgin olive oil.
Divide the avocado mixture equally and spread it over each slice of toasted bread.
Top each avocado toast with halved cherry tomatoes and sprinkle with the fresh cilantro or parsley.
Serve immediately and enjoy as a delicious and nutritious start to your day!
