Avocado Toast + A Giveaway

December 31, 2013 by Julie 975 Comments

During the month of December, things felt a little more hectic than usual around our house. Between traveling, working and getting ourselves organized for Christmas, I found myself slacking a bit when it came to preparing well-rounded meals. Cereal and oatmeal were enjoyed for lunch and dinner a handful of times which isn’t a big deal, but I knew I would feel more satisfied if I ate meals that were a little more nutritious.

Hello avocado toast!

Avocado Toast

This avocado toast is easy to make and packed with healthy fat and fiber!

Agave Mustard Avocado Toast with Agave Mustard

After I received an email with a recipe for avocado toast from Top Chef Richard Blais, who is currently partnering with Benefiber, I gave the dish a try and thought it was fantastic! (Ryan gave it rave reviews as well.) The cayenne added a nice kick to the agave mustard and I could not taste the powdered Benefiber at all!

Here is the recipe, shared with Chef Richard Blais’ permission:

Avocado Toast with Agave Mustard

Ingredients

  • 2 ripe avocados, shelled and roughly chopped
  • 4 slices whole wheat bread, toasted
  • sea salt to taste
  • 1/2 lemon or lime, juiced
  • cilantro or parsley leaves, a few pieces
  • Agave Mustard:
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • pinch cayenne
  • 1 tablespoon agave nectar
  • 2 teaspoons Benefiber
  • 2 tablespoons warm water
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric

Directions

  1. Mix Benefiber and water and then combine with mayonnaise
  2. Add remaining agave mustard ingredients and reserve agave mustard
  3. Simply mix the avocado with the salt and lime juice and top on the toasted bread
  4. Drizzle with the agave mustard and top with cilantro or parsley and a squeeze of lemon or lime

Avocado Toast with Cracked Pepper

As you can see, I changed up the order of the recipe when I made it and spread the agave mustard on the bread before topping it with the avocado. I also topped it with freshly ground pepper which I thought added a nice kick to the avocado toast. Highly recommended!

And now for a fun giveaway…

One PBF reader will win Benefiber product and a $100 American Express gift card from the company to use as you wish. Sweet, huh!?

Benefiber

To enter this giveaway, simply comment on this post, telling me about the last healthy thing you ate today. Easy peasy!

I will randomly select a winner on Friday.

Good luck!

    The last healthy thing I ate was a vegetable lasagn for dinner! Instead of using lots of noodles I halved what the recipe called for and stuffed the layers with lots of vegetables! Instead of cheese I also made tofu ricotta and used a light red sauce! Tasted just like lasagna with 1/2 calories! 🙂
