Ingredients
- 2 slices of bread. We recommend sourdough, wheat, Italian or French loaf
- 1-2 avocados (depending on size)
- ¼ teaspoon lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ cup cherry tomatoes halved
- ½ cup mozzarella cheese balls, Ciliegine, halved
- 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar reduction
- 1 tablespoon thinly sliced basil leaves (about 3 large leaves)
Preparation
In a toaster, heat the bread slices until golden brown. Alternatively, place the sliced bread on a baking sheet. Set the oven rack 6-inches from the top broiling element.
Scoop out both sides of the avocado flesh into a small bowl. Add lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Lightly mash the avocado with a fork, leaving some chunks. Spread the mixture onto the toasted bread slices. Add the tomatoes and cheese on the toast. Drizzle some olive oil and balsamic vinegar reduction on top, season with salt, pepper, and garnish with basil
