Avocado and Pesto Toast Recipe
Avocado and pesto toast is what happens when creamy and herby flavors join forces and create a breakfast that feels suspiciously fancy.
You spread green goodness over crunchy bread like you’re painting a masterpiece, except this artwork disappears in approximately three bites.
The avocado brings that smooth, buttery vibe while the pesto adds herby richness that screams, “yes, I actually eat like royalty.”
It’s bold, fresh, and sassy—basically, the toast version of you strutting into brunch with sunglasses on, ignoring life’s drama.
Grab bread, slather toppings, and remind everyone breakfast can be glamorous without requiring you to sell a kidney.
