The Amazing Avocado Toast

Since becoming vegan, I kept hearing over and over about how amazing avocado toast is. People were raving about it. Every time someone online would ask about a breakfast option, Avocado toast was ALWAYS recommended. For the longest time, I refused to try it. I love avocado, but avocado on toast just didn't seem right to me. I had grown up with peanut butter banana toast, or jelly and butter. So, for a long time, I just wasn't eating much toast because I no longer wanted to ingest all the sugar and oil that came with what I normally put on toast. Not to mention, the bread I was used to consuming also contained sugars and oils. So, I just basically stopped consuming most breads for a while. This wasn't a bad thing, but then, I finally tried Avocado toast. 

When my husband and I visited San Diego, We went to a timeshare presentation where they provided us with a vegan and gluten free breakfast of avocado toast. Granted there was oil on it, and raw tomatoes which I scraped off, but I was surprised by how this simple breakfast was so good and flavorful. I don't know what they dressed it up with, but it was good. So, when my husband and I were in Florida, I decided to make Avocado toast to add to our breakfasts, and I had brought some Trader Joes Chili lime seasoning with us and we bought some fresh sprouts from a local store. We did a vegan, gluten free bread toasted with avocado, chili lime seasoning and sprouts and it was beyond delicious. It was actually even kind of addicting. 

After I returned home, I decided to keep the trend going. I went to social media and asked around to see what kinds of things people put on there avocado toast, and many people simply said that they sprinkle it with Everything But the Bagel seasoning from Trader Joe's. I had heard this before, many times. So I finally decided to try it. I bought the seasoning and made myself some avocado toast with just that and I was in love. I would still add sprouts if I have them or lettuce greens, I also still like to add a bit of the chili lime seasoning, but if all you have is the everything but the bagel seasoning, it's really all you need. It's such an easy breakfast or snack. Also, I found that the Ezekiel brand bread is easy for my body to digest because it is sprouted grains, all organic, and does not include any sugar or oil. It's the only brand of bread that I will eat. Of course, you are welcome to eat any bread you desire. 

If you've never tried Avocado toast, now is the time to try it! It's wonderful!
