The BEST Avocado Toast Ever!
The BEST Avocado Toast Ever! was created because I had left overs from my Organics to You delivery AND because I was tired of my everyday avocado and vegan cream cheese breakfast toasts. I mean, avocado, everyday, on almost anything, right?! However, I thought there’s always room to jazz up even the simplest of breakfasts… so, I did! I had left over rainbow chard and I sauteed that up with some seasoning. Threw in some julienned sun-dried tomatoes in oil and herbs, cut fresh chives from my garden, topped it with left over cilantro, and layered that on top of my avocado smash toasts. Lastly, I drizzled the shit outta them with hot sauce and a vegan ranch dressing… OMG!!! They were crazy AMAZING! I was totally pleased with myself as I was chowing down like a machine on ‘roids leaving a trail of sauce dripping down my face. I had just devoured true love in its most honest form… food. 😉 Hence the name of this post: The BEST Avocado Toast Ever!
My aunt lives in southern California and her neighbor has these beautiful avocado trees that extend into her yard and drop on her grass. This is like my freakin’ dream! She also has lemon trees that produce like crazy every year. Honestly, I think I’d quit teaching and start selling avocado toasts every morning at a stand in front of my house on the street. I’d graduate to selling various styles of guacamole in the afternoon with homemade tortilla chips and fresh lemonade from my lemon trees. I’d soak up the sun (well, from under my umbrella. If you knew me, you’d know I hate direct exposure to sun for too long), blast dope tunes from my old school radio, and chat with my customers – all day, everyday. What a suh-weet way to spend my days! Alas, I don’t live in or amongst that beauty. This is not to say that where I live doesn’t have its own incredible beauty as well, because shit, it TOTALLY does, it’s just different. Still, a girl can dream of lemons, avocados, the sun and a stand… aahhhh…

Simple & Quick Vegan Breakfast Toasts with Sausage
Simple & Quick Vegan Breakfast Toasts with Sausage is healthy and delicious. Hummus, avocado, cream cheese, cilantro and sausage. I eat this any morning that I have all of the ingredients in my fridge. It’s done in 5 minutes, and because I won’t wake my tired ass up any earlier than I already do, this is the perfect remedy for fullness, healthfulness, and happiness. Not only that, my 3 year old will totally get down with this deliciousness as well. Fabulous start to both of our way-too-early mornings!
I obviously have a total love affair with food; hence this blog. Just because something wasn’t sweated over upon a stovetop or involved loads of hard work definitely does not mean that it wasn’t healthy and delish. I’m posting this because it’s something I eat often and I love to eat. It’s easy, super fast, and crazy healthy. Something to be said for simplicity, folks. I promise to keep those KISS meals in my blog!
For this, I used Trader Joe’s Tuscan Pumpernickel Bread because it’s insanely delicious. I toasted that and then smeared Tofutti Cream Cheese on it. Over that I smashed some avocado, and then topped it with a roasted red pepper hummus (recipe coming soon). I had cilantro laying around so I threw some on top. Cilantro on almost anything, really. I used TJ’s Italian Sausage-Less Sausages and chopped that up on the side. I had some incredible espresso and made that in my Bialetti. Voila! A breakfast star was born. What are my fellow vegan/veg-head friends putting on their morning toasts? Send pics in my comment section!
