How do you make these Avocado Toast Recipes with Mint and Fruit?

  • Mix mashed avocado with chopped mint and lemon juice and season it with salt and pepper.

  • Toast baguette slices under a broiler just until the edges are golden, and then rub a garlic clove on each one.

    YUM! I’ve been so boring with just a sprinkling of kosher salt over my avocado toast, but now I’m going to slice up some fruit to make a respectable breakfast 🙂 Your spread looks amazing!

    Oh man, I love avocado toast! Like you, I’ve been known to make an entire meal out of avocado toast. But I’ve never tried bringing a bit of sweetness in from the fruit. I’m digging that idea. Perfect for summer…and so colorful, too! Great idea, Valentina!
