an alt to “avo” toast 🫛🍞
As an avocado toast connoisseur, I do not say this casually, when I proclaim that this alternative recipe and all iterations of it, may be taking the place of my OG staple. Plus, why is it rare to find the previously typical 5 for $5 🥑🥑🥑🥑🥑 anymore?! Ugh. It’s no wonder avocado is extra with the rising prices! Alas, one worry a time. And for now, it question may be: breakfast for dinner?! And if so, I dare you to tell me this isn’t freaking delish. PLUS, it’s so budget friendly that no one has the excuse to complain about “organic being too expensive".” If you have a freezer, you can make multiple servings for under $10. The most 💣, simply dreamy combination of flavors that will likely be the most delicious, elevated, fresh spin on toast you will have all summer. Basic recipe as follows:
INGREDIENTS
4 slices of Food for Life® Flourless Sprouted Grain Ezekiel Bread
1 tsp organic grass fed ghee
1/2 c organic petite green peas, thawed
3-4 organic garlic cloves, chopped

As with everything I make, I love to know the ingredients will fuel not only a beautiful plate, but a beautiful feeling inside. The goal truly is to eat to live, not to live to eat — no matter how incredible something taste’s, it’s also about how it tastes to our minds, bodies and souls that will keep that “deliciousness” with us long past the moment of actual consumption. I will again caveat, I’m not a nutritionist, but as holistic health coach I can confidently reaffirm —
1. The quality of our ingredients is essential!
2. Remember, less is more.
3. Think loving thoughts as you cook and your food will taste better! #truth
4. Always shop organic and in season whenever possible.
Cheers to your good health! XO
