Why you should start your day with this avocado toast:
Research has been found after, a 30 year study with 110,000 health professionals, that substituting avocado instead of dairy or red meat can help reduce the risk for cardiovascular disease by 22% (American Heart Association, 2022).
Topping your avocado toast with microgreens will add a litany of health benefits. They have a dense supply of phytochemicals, and are packed with more nutrients than full grown vegetables (ebert, 2022). Plus they taste great with avocado.
Typically a hearty grain bread is where you should focus your attentions but every now and then a nice sourdough bread does the trick. The fermentation of the sourdough bread leads to an easier absorption for those who normally have a difficult time with bread (Shakelton, 2022).
The egg is optional however if you are hungry the extra protein can be satisfying.
The toast will be difficult not to crave everyday. Feel free to swap out the sourdough toast with a hearty wholegrain bread to get added nutritional benefits. If you do not like spicy leave off the cherry peppers!
