Avocado Toast with Balsamic Glaze
Avocado toast is a simple but delicious dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The creamy avocado is a perfect complement to the crunchy bread, and the balsamic glaze adds a touch of sweetness and acidity. To make avocado toast, start by toasting your bread until golden brown. Then, mash the avocado in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Spread the mashed avocado evenly on each slice of toasted bread. Finally, drizzle balsamic glaze over the avocado toast and sprinkle with red pepper flakes for a little kick.
