Hey there, fellow food lovers! Let's be honest, sometimes the simplest things in life are the best. And for me, nothing beats a perfectly made piece of avocado toast. But this isn't your average avocado toast. Oh no, this is elevated avocado toast—the kind that will make you say 'Wow, I didn't know toast could taste this good!'. We're talking creamy avocado, crunchy pistachios, and a hint of salt and pepper to bring it all together. So easy, yet so satisfying. This recipe is my go-to breakfast, brunch, or even a light lunch when I'm short on time.

The beauty of this recipe is its versatility. You can easily customize it to suit your taste. Love spicy food? Add a pinch of red pepper flakes. Got some leftover herbs? Sprinkle those on top. The possibilities are truly endless. I encourage you to get creative and make this recipe your own! My friend, Sarah, once told me she added a drizzle of honey for a sweet and salty kick—she says it's amazing! I gotta try that sometime.

🍽 Ingredients

📖 Instructions

  1. First things first, let’s toast that bread! Pop your slices into the toaster. Aim for a nice light golden-brown color— not too dark, not too pale. You know, that sweet spot.
  2. While the bread is toasting, let's prep the avocado. Cut it in half lengthwise, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a mixing bowl.
  3. Now, add the pistachios. I like to use shelled pistachios, but you can use in-shell if you're feeling ambitious (and have a really strong jaw). Roughly chop the pistachios—we want some nice chunks, not pistachio dust.
  4. Mash the avocado with a fork. Don't go crazy here; we want some texture. A few large chunks of avocado are just fine. We aren't aiming for guacamole here.
  5. Once your bread is perfectly toasted, spread the mashed avocado evenly on each slice. Don't overload it—a nice, even layer will do nicely.
  6. Sprinkle those pistachios on top. Get that lovely green and beige contrast going on. It's visually appealing, right?
  7. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. This brings out all those delicious avocado and pistachio flavors. Believe me, it's worth it.
  8. And there you have it! Your gorgeous, delicious, simple avo toast with pistachios is ready to eat. Enjoy!

📝 Notes

  • For extra flavor, try adding a squeeze of lime or lemon juice. A drizzle of olive oil also works wonders!
  • If your pistachios are unsalted, add a little extra salt to taste. I like to use a flaky sea salt for extra crunch and flavor.
  • Feel free to experiment with different types of bread!
