Avocado Toast with Arugula Recipe
Avocado toast with arugula is basically salad pretending to be breakfast, which means you’re technically “healthy” while eating fancy bread.
The creamy avocado lays a buttery base, while peppery arugula swoops in like a diva demanding attention—and yes, she deserves it.
It’s crunchy, creamy, peppery, and fabulous enough to make your morning coffee jealous of the spotlight this toast clearly owns.
Forget overpriced cafés—you can make this masterpiece in minutes without leaving your kitchen or wearing pants, which is honestly winning.
Eat it, savor it, and feel superior to everyone still eating cereal.
