I went on a really big health kick over the summer, then I went on a big 'eat whatever I please' kick. I have since realized this was a bit extreme and finally found a "healthy" balance. I love all kinds of food. I do feel best though when I eat healthy food most of the time with a mix of not so healthy foods here and there. I do love me some sweets too and have had my fair share of halloween candy this week. I felt the need to eat something refreshing and came up with a super simple cucumber avocado toast which satisfies all of my odd cravings for food! View the recipe below to make this yummy cucumber avocado toast!
I know avocado toast has been all the rage in the last year or so but I wanted to make one that had a bit of crunch in it. I sliced up some english cucumbers and a large avocado to get started. (I was so excited to see large avocados in the store again!)
I topped a slice of wheat toast with mayo then added the slices of cucumbers in a row. If you're looking for a healthier mayo, try Primal Kitchen.
Next, add the avocado slices then season with salt. I used a black truffle infused salt from Hampton Salt Company which made it extra tasty but you can use any salt you'd like.
And that is is! Super simple but packed with lots of fresh flavor. The recipe card is below. Enjoy! - Bri

Yum! I think I could even leave off the mayo altogether and it would still be awesome.

This looks absolutely yummy! I am the only person in my house that will eat avacado and guacomole gets a little boring after a while. This gives me another healthy alternative to eat those avacado! Thanks for sharing ?

I recently became a huge fan of avocado. Not only do I like the taste but I use them for the various health benefits as well. You can use it in everything! My favorite breakfast on the weekend is similar to yours. I toast one slice of whole grain bread, spread fresh avocado over the toast, and top with a fried egg. Delicious!
BriGeeski says
That sounds awesome too!

I don't love cucumbers, but I always love putting an egg over easy on top of my toast, so good!!
BriGeeski says
Mmm! An egg on top sounds delicious as well!
