Quick tips to avoid common problems
- Go ripe, not rock-hard: A ripe avocado mashes smoothly. If it’s firm, it will be harder to get that creamy texture.
- Season while it’s still in the bowl: Lemon juice or vinegar mixed into the mash helps distribute flavor evenly.
- Eat soon after assembling: Toast is best when it’s crisp—serving immediately keeps the texture contrast.
FAQ

What kind of bread works best?
A slice of hearty bread is ideal. If you want more fiber, swap to whole-grain.
