Ingredients
  

1 medium ripe avocado

1 cup diced seedless watermelon

2 slices of whole-grain or sourdough bread

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional for a kick)

Fresh mint leaves, torn for garnish

Feta cheese, crumbled (optional for added richness)

Instructions
 

Toast the Bread: Begin by toasting the two slices of bread. You can use either a toaster or a skillet set to medium heat. Toast until the bread is golden brown and crispy on both sides, approximately 3-5 minutes.

    Prep the Avocado: Halve the ripe avocado and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. Add the fresh lime juice, extra virgin olive oil, and sea salt. Using a fork, mash the avocado to your desired consistency, whether that be smooth or chunky.

      Prepare the Watermelon: Cut the watermelon into small, bite-sized cubes. For an enhanced flavor, consider marinating the diced watermelon with a pinch of sea salt and the optional crushed red pepper flakes for about 5 minutes.

        Assemble the Toast: Once your bread is toasted to perfection, generously spread a layer of the mashed avocado on each slice. Evenly distribute the marinated watermelon cubes over the top of the avocado.

          Garnish: For a burst of freshness, sprinkle torn mint leaves over the watermelon. If you enjoy the tangy flavor of cheese, crumble some feta cheese on top for added richness.

            Serve: Finish the dish by drizzling a bit more extra virgin olive oil over the top. If desired, add an additional pinch of sea salt or a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes for a touch of heat.

              Enjoy: Serve your Watermelon Avocado Toast immediately as a refreshing snack or a delightful brunch option!
