My Favorite Avocado Toast Recipe
This Mediterranean avocado toast makes a super easy lunch or dinner! Creamy mashed avocado gets topped with cucumber, olives, tomatoes, pickled onions, and feta: the kind of combination that makes a 5 minute meal feel like lunch on a patio.

- 01
Toast the bread: Toast the bread until golden and crisp.

Mash the avocado: In a small bowl, mash the avocado with the kosher salt and garlic powder until mostly smooth with a few chunks remaining. Stir in 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Taste and add more salt if desired.
- 03
Season the cucumber: Thinly slice the cucumber and toss it with 1 teaspoon lemon juice and a pinch of salt.

Assemble the toast: Spread the avocado mash over the toast and sprinkle with the red pepper flakes. Top with the cucumber, Kalamata olives, cherry tomatoes, pickled red onions, and feta cheese (omit for vegan). Finish with the dried oregano and if you have any fresh herbs on hand, add a sprig or two. Serve immediately (I like serving alongside my Cannellini Bean Salad for more protein and fiber).
