Caprese Avocado Toast-avocado toast with fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, basil, and balsamic glaze! This simple avocado toast is great as a snack or meal!

Ingredients

  • 2 ripe avocados
  • 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
  • Sea salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 4 slices bread, toasted
  • 4 ounces fresh mozzarella, sliced and cut into pieces, to fit the bread
  • 1 cup grape tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup basil leaves, roughly chopped
  • Balsamic Glaze, for drizzling

Preparation

  1. Cut the avocados in half, remove pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl.
  2. Add the lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper, to taste.
  3. With a fork, mash the ingredients together, keeping the texture slightly chunky.
  4. Spread the mashed avocado evenly onto toasted bread slices.
  5. Top with fresh mozzarella slices, tomatoes, and basil.
  6. Season with additional salt and pepper, if desired.
  7. Drizzle with balsamic glaze and serve immediately.

Cook’s Note

I like to use whole grain bread. If you don’t have grape tomatoes, tomato slices will work too!
