Avocado Toast

The food blogging community is flooded with all kinds of Mexican recipes today, but this one is probably the easiest one you'll see, it only takes about 5 minutes to prepare, and you won't believe how crazy good it is.  One bite and you'll know why we make it again and again.  Happy Cinco de Mayo!

We start with a simple clove of garlic, peeled and root end removed.

We'll also need a couple of pieces of toasted bread. The kind of bread doesn't really matter. Whatever floats your boat.

While the toast is still warm, take that clove of garlic and rub it all over the toast. The smell of warm garlic will hit your nose almost immediately and your mouth will begin to water. Don't be alarmed, this is good. Very, very good.

The next step is to take a half of a ripe avocado and smash it like so.

Scoop up the mashed avocado and schmear it all over the garlic rubbed toast. I'm dying here!

Now sprinkle the mashed avocado kosher salt and black pepper, and finish it off with a drizzle of your very best extra virgin olive oil. Sometimes I like to replace the salt and pepper with Everything Bagel seasoning!

If you have any leftover garlic, you can store it in a small glass jar in the fridge until you make your next batch of avocado toast. That'll be about an hour later.

Seriously, it's so good I couldn't even wait to take a photo before sinking my teeth into it. If you love avocado, this is a must try.
