Ingredients

2 pieces toast multi-grain bread and sourdough bread would all work
1 large avocado ripened
1 ½ teaspoons lemon juice plus lemon wedges to serve with
1 garlic clove minced - optional
½ teaspoon Kosher salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ Persian cucumber peeled and sliced thinly (or English cucumber would also work)
4 oz. smoked salmon packaged
½ cup micro greens or arugula
1 tablespoon pickled red onions optional
A drizzle of extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon Everything Bagel Seasoning optional

Instructions

If preferred, toast your bread and let it cool for a few minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mash avocado using the back of a fork. Add lemon juice, minced garlic (if using), salt, and pepper. Stir well. Give it a taste and add more if necessary.
Spread each slice of toast with the avocado mixture.
Top each slice with the cucumber slices.
Place smoked salmon pieces and pickled onion (if using) on top.
Garnish with microgreens and a drizzle of olive oil. Finish it off with a sprinkle of Everything Bagel Seasoning.
Serve with a lemon wedge on the side.

Notes

Garlic: If I am making this avocado toast on a work day I omit using garlic, but if I am making it on the weekend, then I make sure to add it in.
Multiply the recipe: Serving a crowd? No problem. Simply multiply the recipe as many times as you want. I usually serve 2 ounces of smoked salmon and ½ avocado per serving.
To Make Ahead: If you are serving this recipe to a crowd, feel free to mash the avocados in advance, but be sure to cover the surface with a thin layer of lemon juice followed by some plastic wrap to prevent oxidizing. Assemble the recipe right before serving.
Storing leftovers: This avocado toast is best on the day it is served. However, you can store the leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
