Ingredients
  

2 slices of whole grain bread

1 small ripe avocado

1 cup watermelon, diced into small cubes

2 tablespoons feta cheese, crumbled (optional)

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Pinch of salt

Pinch of freshly ground black pepper

Fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Red pepper flakes (optional, for a spicy kick)

Instructions
 

Toast the Bread: Start by placing the whole grain bread slices in a toaster or on a grill. Toast them until they achieve your desired level of crispness, golden brown is perfect!

    Prepare the Avocado: In a mixing bowl, scoop out the flesh of the ripe avocado. Add the fresh lime juice, the extra virgin olive oil, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Using a fork, mash the avocado mixture until it is creamy yet retains a bit of chunkiness for texture.

      Assemble the Toast: After the bread is toasted to perfection, take each slice and spread a generous layer of the avocado mixture on top, ensuring it's evenly covered.

        Add Watermelon: Evenly layer the diced watermelon cubes on each slice of avocado toast, ensuring they are well distributed for a burst of flavor in every bite.

          Feta Cheese: If you’re including feta cheese, sprinkle the crumbled bits over the watermelon to add a delightful creaminess and salty element to the dish.

            Garnish and Serve: Finish your masterpiece with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and refreshing taste. If you enjoy a bit of heat, sprinkle red pepper flakes on top for a spicy kick.

              Enjoy: Serve immediately while the bread is warm and crispy to experience the delightful contrast of textures and flavors.
