    Tomato and Avocado Toast (gluten free)

    This gluten free avocado toast could not get any easier…or more delicious! The gluten free bread is toasted and topped with ripe mashed avocado, feta cheese, red onion, tomato, balsamic glaze and avocado oil! It is seasoned with salt, pepper and parsley.

    Tomato and avocado toast is a delicious and healthy breakfast or lunch option that is quick and easy to make. It is made with just a few simple ingredients, including ripe avocado, feta cheese, red onion, tomato, balsamic glaze, avocado oil, salt, and pepper.

    The avocado and tomato are a perfect match, as the creamy avocado balances out the acidity of the tomato. The feta cheese adds a salty and tangy flavor, and the red onion adds a bit of sweetness and crunch. The balsamic glaze adds a touch of sweetness and acidity, and the avocado oil adds a richness and creaminess.

    Tomato and avocado toast is a great source of healthy fats, fiber, and vitamins. Avocados are a good source of monounsaturated fats, which are beneficial for heart health. They are also a good source of fiber, which can help you feel full and satisfied. Tomatoes are a good source of vitamins C and K, as well as lycopene, an antioxidant that has been linked to a reduced risk of cancer.

    To make tomato and avocado toast, simply toast some bread, mash some avocado, and top with the other ingredients. You can also add other ingredients to your toast, such as fresh basil, mozzarella, or prosciutto.

    Tomato and avocado toast is a delicious and healthy breakfast or lunch option that is quick and easy to make. It is a great way to start your day or to get a quick and healthy meal in the afternoon.

    GLUTEN FREE BREAD

    Avocado toast is best on crisp toast instead of soft bread. You want the crunch of the toast to offset the softness of the avocado.

    As we know, finding good gluten free bread is hard. I’ve listed my favorites for you below to help cut down the time of you perfect-bread search!

    I like this one from canyon because it is full sized! I hate mini slices of bread and this one is large slices and toasts really well. https://amzn.to/3U4rmFC

    This gluten free bread by schars is also really good! They have full sized slices and toast well but you only get 5 slices in a pack. https://amzn.to/3Be67bP

    I love a good crusty roll. This gluten free roll is the closest I’ve found to an italian loaf. It toasts really well as well. https://amzn.to/3DfFLZu

    AVOCADO

    • Avocados are a good source of fiber. Fiber helps you feel full and satisfied, which can help you control your weight.
    • Avocados are a good source of vitamins C and K. Vitamin C is an antioxidant that helps protect your cells from damage, and vitamin K is important for blood clotting.
    • Avocados are a good source of lycopene. Lycopene is an antioxidant that has been linked to a reduced risk of cancer.

    You want to make sure your avocados are ripe.

    HOW TO CHECK IF AN AVOCADO IS RIPE?

    You want to lightly squeeze the avocado in your hand. If you can gentle feel it giving and it is a little soft, its likely ripe. The skin should be dark in color.

    If the avocado is rock solid hard or green in color it is not ready yet.

    TOPPINGS

    For this gluten free avocado toast version I used feta, red onion, tomato, balsamic glaze and avocado oil! It is seasoned with salt, pepper and parsley! You can switch up the toppings how ever you’d like to give your own spin to it!

    TASTE & TEXTURE

    This gluten free avocado toast is packed with fresh flavors. The avocado is soft and smooth. The bread is toasted and crispy. I like to add a drizzle of oil or a spread to my gluten free avocado toast to give it extra flavor. I always season my avocado toast with salt and pepper for a seasoned taste.

    DIRECTIONS

    STEP 1

    Toast the slices of gluten free bread in a toaster until golden brown.

    STEP 2

    Slice your avocado in half. Remove half from the skin and mash on a cutting board.

    STEP 3

    Spread mashed avocado onto slices of bread.

    STEP 4

    Top with toppings and enjoy!
