A Twist On Toast

All I can say is how delicious...Avocado toast with tomatoes and hummus, Yum Yum Yum.


Ingredients:

  • 6-8 slices of bread [gluten-free, whole wheat, etc.]
  • 1/2 cup hummus [store bought or homemade]
  • 1 avocado – halved, pitted and peeled
  • 4 plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise, cores and seeds removed
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
  • salt + pepper to taste

Directions:
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Arrange the tomatoes on your baking sheet, cut sides up, in a single layer. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Roast for 25-30 minutes, until the tomatoes are beginning to caramelize.
  • While the tomatoes roast, toast your bread. Using a cookie cutter or circular object, cut out 1-2 circles per toast, depending on how big the piece of bread is.
  • Spread ½-1 tablespoon of hummus on each circular toast.
  • In a bowl or plate, mash avocado with a fork, leaving large chunks.
  • Layer the mashed avocado over hummus, season with salt + pepper, and then top with a roasted [or fresh] tomato.
  • Serve immediately.
