Summary

This easy, flavor-packed toast is the perfect mix of creamy, tangy, and spicy. Smashed avocado and kimchi take the spotlight, layered on hearty whole-grain bread.

Ingredients

 2 slices of organic whole grain bread (see Chef’s Notes for flour-free)
 1 large avocados (seed removed)
 ½ cup kimchi (of your choice)
 2 tbsp green onion (sliced)
 2 tbsp jalapeño (optional; seeded and diced)
 2 tbsp cilantro (optional; chopped)
 1 cup arugula (or leafy greens of your choice)
 8 slices of cucumber (skin removed if waxed, sliced)
 8 slices of radish (sliced)
 ¼ cup broccoli sprouts (or sprouts of your choice)
 2 tsp sesame seeds
 salt (optional to taste)
 ground black pepper (optional to taste)

Directions

1

Toast your bread.

2

While the bread is toasting, make your avocado kimchi topping: Add the avocado, kimchi, green onion, and jalapeño and cilantro, if using, to a medium bowl. Mash with a fork until combined and the avocado is mashed.

3

Layer your avocado toast: Once the bread is finished toasting, place each piece onto separate plates.

4

Divide the leafy greens between each slice of bread, followed by the smashed avocado kimchi mixture.

5

Top each avocado mixture with sliced cucumber and sliced radish.

6

Divide the broccoli sprouts between the two avocado toasts.

7

Sprinkle sesame seeds on top as well as salt and pepper, if desired.

8

Squeeze a bit of lime juice over each avocado toast.

Chef’s Notes

Substitutions
Use lemon juice, orange juice, or apple cider vinegar in place of the lime juice.

Use pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds in place of sesame seeds.

Whole Grain Bread Substitutions
Use thinly sliced sweet potato, eggplant, or summer squash as a bread substitute. Note that it may need slightly longer toasting than the bread. Or, try grilling it on the stovetop instead of toasting it.

Storage
Store the avocado kimchi mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
