For the preparation of avocado toast, choose cereal bread or black rye bread, which go perfectly with avocado.

To make avocado toast choose a ripe avocado, with a bright green skin and soft to the touch, but not mushy. Use it immediately after peeling it, otherwise season it with lemon juice to prevent it from turning black.

Another popular version of avocado toast is the one with egg. To make it, toast the slices of bread, mash the avocado pulp seasoned with oil, salt and pepper and spread it on the slices of bread. Top with a fried egg on each toast and eat it immediately.
