Ingredients
  

2 slices of rustic sourdough bread

1 ripe avocado

1 large ripe tomato, sliced into rounds

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling

1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar

Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional for added flavor)

A handful of fresh basil leaves, torn into pieces

Red pepper flakes (optional, for a spicy kick)

Microgreens or sunflower sprouts, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Toast the Bread: Start by toasting the sourdough bread either in a toaster or on a grill until it reaches a beautiful golden hue and is crispy to the touch. This will create a delightful crunch that serves as the perfect foundation for your toppings.

    Prepare the Avocado: While the bread is toasting, carefully slice the ripe avocado in half lengthwise, discard the pit, and scoop the creamy flesh into a medium-sized bowl. Use a fork to mash the avocado, ensuring to leave some chunky pieces for a pleasing texture.

      Season the Avocado: Drizzle half of the olive oil and the balsamic vinegar over the mashed avocado. Season with a pinch of sea salt, freshly cracked black pepper, and garlic powder (if using). Mix this combination gently to incorporate all the flavors, and then set aside.

        Assemble the Toast: Once your bread is toasted to perfection, take a generous spoonful of the seasoned avocado and spread it evenly across each slice of bread, making sure to cover the surface richly.

          Top with Tomato: Next, layer the freshly sliced tomato rounds over the avocado spread. For an extra boost of flavor, sprinkle a touch of salt and pepper over the tomatoes.

            Add Finishing Touches: Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the prepared toast. Scatter the torn basil leaves across the top for a fragrant aroma and sprinkle with red pepper flakes if you like a bit of heat. For an additional pop of color and flavor, garnish with microgreens or sunflower sprouts.

              Serve and Enjoy: If preferred, cut the toast in half for easy handling, and serve immediately to experience the best of its fresh and vibrant flavors!
