Avocado Toast - So Good!
It's been ages since I had an avocado toast
I discovered this goodie when we were in Budapest and both ate avocado for the first time, yes, really! For the first time, lol. Having it on top of bread with a poached egg and baby spinach was a game changer here. From that moment, we ate it more often and also tried to eat more spinach. Unfortunately, the eggs there were always (some worse than others though) causing my boyfriend to get ill at some point later that day and therefore I kind of stopped eating it myself too.
The eggs here are so tasteful!
Something that I loved when we arrived in Spain was the fact that eggs were a lot cheaper here and that I instantly hit the jackpot regarding taste sensation when I bought some eggs at a supermarket that's actually not that great overall. It's the only home delivery supermarket you can use within a food delivery app and they have good customer service for when something goes wrong. The eggs have gone up in price though, but they still taste fabulous. And even better, my boyfriend can handle them too.
I usually have avocados and eggs at home
But I haven't made an avocado toast since we moved here. Time to change this! Usually the avocados get snatched by my boyfriend when I'm considering eating them myself, lol. Not this time though, I had two small avocados left and suddenly felt like eating an avocado toast. I roasted the sliced bread in the pan and added a good thick layer of avocado with pepper and salt, to top it off with a fried egg with the perfect egg yolk because when an egg yolk is dry, it's a fail to me. Top off with some more pepper and salt, bon apetit!
So GOOD! I wonder why I don't eat this more often, simply delicious!

I make a smashed avocado-chickpea toast very morning for lunch ^^ :D
Its good!
Oh with chickpeas? Where do you add these and how? I have roasted them once for a salad and did a falafel attempt but that's as far as my chickpeas experience goes lol. I have 2 bags in the pantry to try another round of hummus and falafel but haven't done so. Recipe to check out would be great :) thanks!
Chickpeas can be used in a lot of recipes :D
Well, if they are cooked well enough, you can mash them with a fork.
So I mix the avocado and chickpeas and mashes them to my liking, I don't might having a few half-chickpeas in the mix.
Then add salt, pepper and lime juice and mix it up.
Toast the bread and add a THICC layer of the avocado mix and enjoy :D
I use.
1 whole avocado
½ can of Chickpeas (120g without water)
2 slice of whole grain bread.
Lime juice (Like 8ml or so, whatever you want)
Salt and pepper.
You can also easily add in other stuff, I sometimes add in tomato if I have on. Its quite good :D
Ok noted, mashed chickpeas, gonna try that when I will make falafel, set a bit of peas on the side to try it, lol.
8 ml of lime juice, uhm, skipping that :) lol I'm not a huge fan of lime myself anyway
Salt and pepper always needed, makes or breaks the avocado taste if you ask me..
Thanks for sharing!
Well, the lime adds a nice stringy for your taste buds and it also preserves the avocado so it wont go brown ;)
But it won't go brown anyway if you eat it right away :P
Didn't know you can preserve an avocado that way though, I was wondering how the guacamole never turns brown (now assume it's because of this ingredient lol)
Getting hungry talking about avocado toasts but the ones I have at home now will take a few more days before we can consume them, sadly :)
This is true xD
Yes. I don't know why, it just works haha :D
The avocados not being riped or?
Yes they were delivered yesterday so usually it takes a day or 3-4 before we can eat them.
Ohh thats pretty neat!
I just go the store and press on every single one to find one I can eat xD
LOL so you're the reason that there are a lot of avocados with rotten spots :P haha
Haha! I dont press hard! I just lightly feel if its soft or not xD
I am not entirely sure how I can do it differently xD I dont want already rotten ones xD
Just kidding, I used to do the same until I learned that I could play it safer by just buying the green ones, and letting them ripe at home, less chance of damage by others. The ones sold per kg are often more damaged so I go for the trays with 3/4 pieces on it. Doesn't work always, but often it does :)
I had too many rotten avocados in Budapest that I have a slight trauma from it, while here in Spain they are of much better quality and a lot cheaper too :)
Hmm, interesting. Where are you having your avocados? Fridge? Cuppard? Or just out and about? xD
We can get a pack of 2-4 here or a whole net.
I never put them in the fridge to be honest, always in the kitchen but I can imagine when it's 35 degrees here, they need to be in the fridge .. And you?
Gosh, never knew one could take about avocados this long lol
Normally the Fridge, but I also live with roomates, so its just easiest place to store them xD THey are not in a fridge in the supermarket.
Ye might be a good idea :D
Haha, I know right xD

Oh dang, I love myself some avocado egg (soft-medium boiled) and some cheese on a toast. It's so good! Have you tried it with Filet-American yet? :P
oops, logged in with wrong account, let's try again :)
I wish! I haven't eaten Filet American since we left Holland more than 6 years ago. I have found these Dutch product shops here in Spain now but so far Filet American has been sold out every single time I order something. Now that you mention it, gonna check again, I LOVE filet american :) I wish they'd sell it in the supermarkets here :)
