# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It comes together in less time than it takes your coffee to brew, so you can eat well even on rushed mornings.
  • The everything seasoning transforms simple avocado into something that tastes indulgent and restaurant worthy.
  • You can dress it up with eggs and feta or keep it minimal, and it works either way.
02 -
  • Don't skip toasting the bread properly, soggy toast ruins the whole experience and you want that crisp base to hold up under the creamy avocado.
  • Use avocado that's truly ripe, not hard or overly soft. I once used one that was too firm and it tasted chalky, and another time one that was too ripe turned brown and bitter within minutes.
03 -
  • Buy avocados at different stages of ripeness so you always have one ready, I keep a firm one on the counter and a ripe one in the fridge.
  • If your avocado isn't quite ripe, microwave it for 10 seconds to soften it slightly, though the flavor won't be as rich as a naturally ripened one.
