Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced

2 slices of crusty bread (sourdough or whole grain)

2 tablespoons cream cheese (or a vegan alternative)

1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried dill)

Optional garnishes: red pepper flakes, microgreens, or radish slices

Instructions
 

Toast the Bread: Start by preheating your toaster or oven. Toast the slices of bread until they achieve a golden-brown hue and a crispy texture, which will provide a delightful crunch to complement the creamy toppings.

    Prepare the Avocado Mixture: Carefully cut each ripe avocado in half, discard the pit, and scoop the creamy flesh into a medium mixing bowl. To the bowl, add the cream cheese, freshly squeezed lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Use a fork to mash the ingredients together until they form a creamy yet slightly chunky texture.

      Incorporate the Dill: Stir in the chopped fresh dill into the avocado mixture until it is evenly distributed. Taste the mixture and feel free to adjust the seasoning by adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice according to your preference.

        Assemble the Toast: Once your bread is toasted, generously spread the creamy avocado mixture evenly across each slice, making sure to cover them completely.

          Layer with Cucumbers: Arrange the thin cucumber slices over the avocado spread. You can overlap the slices or create a fan pattern for an eye-catching presentation.

            Add Garnishes: For an extra kick, sprinkle a touch of salt, freshly cracked pepper, and, if you enjoy heat, a dash of red pepper flakes across the top. Finish off your toast with a sprinkle of microgreens or a few radish slices for a vibrant touch.

              Serve and Enjoy: Cut each toast in half for easy handling and serve immediately. Delight in your vibrant, creamy cucumber avocado toast—it’s perfect for breakfast or as a midday snack!
