Avocado Toast with Mixed Baby Greens

By Taste of Lime

By itself, our avocado toast makes a delicious breakfast or snack. But we like to go a step further and top it with a salad of mixed baby greens dressed in a light vinaigrette. It’s a healthy, plant-based option that’s perfect for brunch or as a starter for a meal.

For the Guacamole

2 medium avocados
1 teaspoon lime juice
1 teaspoon sliced green onion
1/2 teaspoon finely diced, jalapeño pepper or serrano
1/4 teaspoon table salt
A very small amount of garlic, minced or grated on a Microplane (less than 1/8 teaspoon)
2 to 4 slices of rustic-style bread, toasted (depending on the size of the bread)

For the Salad

2 cups mixed baby greens, or microgreens
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 teaspoon natural rice vinegar
1/8 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Salt and pepper

Directions

Place the oil, vinegar, and mustard in a small bowl. Season lightly with salt and pepper and whisk to combine; set aside.

Cut the avocados in half. Remove the pits and scoop out the flesh with a large spoon. Place 3 of the halves in a bowl and mash coarsely with a fork. Roughly chop the remaining half and add it to the bowl. Pour the lime juice over the avocados and add the onion, jalapeño, garlic, and salt. Mash in and stir to incorporate the ingredients but leave the texture somewhat chunky.

Place the mixed greens in a bowl. Whisk the vinaigrette again and drizzle enough over the leaves to lightly coat. Spread the guacamole on the toast and top with salad. Serve immediately.
