# What You'll Need:

→ Bread

01 - 12 slices sourdough or multigrain bread

→ Avocado Spread

02 - 4 ripe avocados
03 - 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
04 - 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
05 - 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

→ Toppings

06 - 6 radishes, thinly sliced
07 - 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
08 - 1/2 cup crumbled feta or goat cheese
09 - 1/4 cup toasted pumpkin seeds
10 - 1/4 cup microgreens or baby arugula
11 - 4 hard-boiled eggs, sliced
12 - 1/4 cup pickled red onions
13 - 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
14 - 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, optional
15 - Flaky sea salt, to taste
16 - Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
17 - Lemon wedges, for serving

# How-To Steps:

01 - Toast bread slices in batches until golden and crisp. Arrange them on a large serving board or platter.
02 - Halve, pit, and scoop avocados into a bowl. Add lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mash until creamy but still slightly chunky.
03 - Spread a generous layer of avocado mash onto each toast, or serve the mash in a bowl for guests to assemble their own.
04 - Arrange the toppings—radishes, cherry tomatoes, cheeses, pumpkin seeds, microgreens, egg slices, and pickled onions—in small bowls or directly on the board.
05 - Drizzle olive oil over the avocado toasts. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes, flaky salt, and black pepper as desired.
06 - Garnish with microgreens or arugula. Serve with lemon wedges for squeezing.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • It feeds a crowd without trapping you in the kitchen, leaving you free to actually enjoy your guests.
  • Everyone builds exactly what they want, so there's no picky eater problem and the table conversation flows naturally.
  • The board itself looks restaurant-worthy but tastes like something you genuinely wanted to eat.
02 -
  • Toast your bread right before assembling—five minutes of sitting and it becomes chewy instead of crisp, and no topping can save soggy bread.
  • Never mash avocados more than ten minutes before serving; no matter how much lemon juice you use, oxidation will creep in and the color will fade.
03 -
  • Buy avocados three or four days before you plan to use them, then let them sit on your counter; they'll be perfectly ripe exactly when you need them.
  • If your pumpkin seeds aren't toasted, do it in a dry pan over medium heat for about two minutes—the second you smell them, remove from heat or they'll burn and turn bitter.
