I’m not the biggest breakfast person. I know that it is the most important meal of the day, and I realize that as a health food professional I should be more diligent. But tell this to my appetite. I am a yogi and you are not supposed to eat 2+ hours before practicing yoga and I don’t like to eat before my 1 precious cup of coffee in the am (organic with fresh cashew milk mind you). So I go with such things as a simple slice of Ezekiel bread with homemade nut butter or something fun and unique like this awesome avocado recipe below. Fast and healthy and pretty darn good if I do say so myself!

Avocado Miso Toast

INGREDIENTS:

2 slices sprouted whole grain or gluten free bread
2+ teaspoons mellow white miso paste
1 medium ripe avocado
Lime to taste
1 Tablespoon seasoned dried seaweed flakes (I like Sea’s Gift Korean Nori)

Makes 1-2 servings

 

DIRECTIONS:

Toast the bread. While it is toasting roll the avocado with your hand on a cutting board to soften. Cut in half and scrape out the inside into a bowl. Mash with a fork and add a squeeze of lime and set aside.

When toast is done, spread 1 teaspoon of miso evenly over the bread. Top with the avocado and sprinkle with the seaweed and eat!

Tips & Notes~

Add some sliced red onion, ripe tomato or your favorite hot sauce on top.

An egg fried in virgin coconut oil is amazing.

For a BLT type of effect~ slice some tempeh thinly and pan fry in coconut oil until crispy and serve on top of the toast.
