I think everyone is serving avocado toasts these days- especially the vegan places. I am not vegan but I do enjoy an avocado toast every once in a while. I have tried some in the past and my gripe is that they all taste bland. I have no issues with vegan cooking but I feel most things I have tried at vegan restaurants or cafes, are bland. Vegan doesn’t mean without flavor??? I enjoy cooking all kinds of dishes, with or without meat- the most important thing is flavor… so, here is my version of avocado toast- a lot yummier and a lot cheaper!!

• 1 ripe avocado, peeled and pit taken out and smashed
• 1/3 cup cherry tomatoes, chopped
• 1 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 serrano chili, chopped
• Juice of ½ lime
• 1 teaspoon pistachio oil
• 1 tablespoon chopped pistachios
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped

Mix all the ingredients in a small bowl and check for seasonings.

• 2 sourdough slices, toasted

Slather the avocado mixture on the toasted slices and serve!!
