Let's be real, avocado toast is more than just a food trend; it's a lifestyle. Simple, healthy, and endlessly customizable, it's the perfect breakfast, lunch, or snack. I remember when avocado toast first became a 'thing.' Honestly, I was skeptical. Could something so simple really be that good? Turns out, yes, yes it could. But what takes it from good to great? A touch of heat. That's right, we're talking avocado toast with HOT SAUCE. It's a game changer, trust me on this one. The creamy avocado combined with the spicy kick of your favorite hot sauce is a flavor combination sent from the heavens. It's simple, satisfying, and requires minimal effort. What's not to love?
This isn't just a recipe; it's an invitation to create. Feel free to experiment with different types of bread, avocados, and, of course, hot sauces. The beauty of avocado toast is that it's a blank canvas. Wanna add a fried egg? Go for it! How about some crumbled feta cheese? Absolutely! This is your toast; make it your own. The most important thing is to use fresh, high-quality ingredients. It makes all the difference. Remember that time I used that rock-hard avocado from the back of the fridge? Yeah, let's not repeat that. And for those of you who are counting calories, don't worry; avocado is packed with healthy fats and nutrients. So, indulge away!

🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- First things first, grab a ripe avocado. You want one that yields slightly to gentle pressure but isn't mushy.
- Carefully slice the avocado in half lengthwise, remove the pit (carefully!), and scoop out the flesh into a small bowl.
- Using a fork, mash the avocado to your desired consistency. Some people like it chunky, others prefer it smooth. There's no right or wrong answer here. Season with a pinch of salt, black pepper, and a squeeze of fresh lemon or lime juice. The citrus not only brightens the flavor but also helps prevent browning.
- Now, toast your bread to your liking. I'm a fan of a medium-golden toast, but you do you.
- While the bread is toasting, prepare any other toppings you want to add. A sprinkle of red pepper flakes, some everything bagel seasoning, or a drizzle of olive oil can take your avocado toast to the next level.
- Once the toast is ready, spread the mashed avocado evenly over each slice.
- Drizzle your favorite hot sauce over the avocado. Start with a small amount and add more to taste. I'm currently obsessed with Cholula, but sriracha, Tabasco, or even a homemade chili oil work great too. This is where you can really get creative and make it your own. Don't be afraid to experiment!
- Optionally, garnish with some flaky sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, or a sprinkle of cilantro. And that, my friends, is it! Your avocado toast with hot sauce is ready to be devoured.
📝 Notes
