It's amazing that something so simple can taste so good. I mean it's not even a recipe...you just throw it together.

If you are smitten with avocado toast like I am here are some other ideas for topping your avocado treats...
- cream cheese and lots of garlic salt
- bacon and tomatoes
- fried egg and hot sauce
- feta and olives
- pears, blue cheese, and pecans
- smoked salmon and red onion slices
I've been kinda obsessed with balsamic syrup over here and you can see it on my Arugula and Prosciutto Pizza and Easy Balsamic Chicken. I could just drink it from the bottle, it has so much concentrated flavor. It's a great shortcut to making things taste over the top delicious.
I use Udi's Gluten Free Whole Grain Bread for this Avocado Toast with Microgreens and it's perfect. It toasts up nicely and has a hearty multigrain flavor to it.

You can't go wrong with avocado toast and topping it with microgreens makes it even more delicious! Love the balsamic syrup there as well.

I totally agree with you on something so simple tasting good! It really makes me wonder why anyone would want yellow, salty processed crap out of a bag when healthy, delicious food like this is available!

This is going to sound weird, but I have a moderate to sever obsession with microgreens. Like, I put them on EVERYTHING. So to me, this is the end all, be all of avocado toasts! Love that you added balsamic and crushed red pepper flakes too! This is definitely some toast I could devour on the regular! Cheers, girlie!

I used the Good Seed Dave's Killer Bread, aged Balsamic vinegarette and broccoli micro greens, and added a little lime and diced grape tomatoes in the avocado. It was phenomenal!!
