I spent most of my life thinking avocados were vegetables until I was told that anything with a seed in it was a fruit. Needless to say, it is my favorite fruit…or vegetable… or whatever it is! Here is my recipe that I really love- hope you enjoy it as much as I do

Ingredients:

• 1 Large Ripe Avocado
• Juice of 1 Lime
• Pinch of red pepper flakes
• Pinch of sea salt
• 4 Slices of Hearty Bread- I use Ezekiel

Directions:

• 1. Toast the slices of bread.
• 2. Mash the avocado with a fork -like you are making guacamole. Add the juice of one lime. Add red pepper flakes and sea salt to taste- modify to your liking.
• 3. Spread avocado paste on to toast and Enjoy!

Fun Facts

• *Avocados contain Vitamin E, monounsaturated fats, and glutathione- which are a power punch for keeping your heart healthy.
• *They contain a surprising amount of fiber- about 5 grams per 3 ounces.
