Avocado Toast with Pesto and Tahini Trade your standard condiments for ones that pack more exotic flavors. Tahini, a Middle Eastern condiment made of sesame seeds, lends creamy texture and a nutty flavor as well as protein, calcium, manganese and omega-3 and 6 fatty acids. Homemade pesto brightens up the dish with an herbaceous punch.
Ingredients Avocado Toast
2 Slices Bread of Choice
1 Avocado
Tahini
Black Pepper
Red Pepper Flakes Pesto
1 cup herbs, packed - half parsley, half cilantro (or any herbs of your choice)
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
Juice from 1/2 a Lime
1/4 Tsp Pepper
Salt, to taste
Directions
Start by preparing the pesto. Combine all pesto ingredients in a food processor, and blend until smooth. The sauce should be thin enough to drizzle. Taste, and adjust seasoning accordingly. Toast bread until both sides are golden brown. Cut avocado in half, and remove the pit. Cut thin slices into each half, and scoop out with a spoon, ensuring the slices remain intact. Layer the sliced avocado onto the toasted bread, then, drizzle with pesto and tahini sauce. Sprinkle black and/or crushed pepper on top for a little more kick.
