Yep, I consume a lot of avocados.

They’re quite versatile and I absolutely love them.

Clearly.

So I figured it couldn’t hurt to come up with another variation of avocado toast.

Avocado goes well with both sweet and savory vibes.

This Tropical Mango Avocado Toast is still one of my nearest and dearests, but for some odd reason I was craving something very savory.

Normally I go for the sugariest option available.

However, I did have some nori and toasted sesame seeds on my hands that had expired.

Don’t worry, the stuff was still safe to eat.

(There have been no ill affects thus far, at least.)

So, I toasted up a nice slice of whole grain bread, slathered on a thin yet adequate layer of unrefined coconut oil, lightly mashed up half of a perfectly ripened avocado with savory nutritional yeast and liquid aminos, spread that heavenly mixture on the toast, then topped it all off with strips of dried nori and toasted sesame seeds!

Ohhh so savory and very much healthy!

In case all of that sounded like a foreign language to you, here are some details concerning the ingredients.

Whole grain bread: Now I hope we all know what this is. If you’re gluten-free, go ahead and use your favorite gluten-free bread. Don’t even think about using subpar white sandwich bread. Just no.

Unrefined coconut oil: A tropical oil derived from coconuts. Obviously. Unrefined coconut oil does taste a little coconutty, so if you’re not a fan, skip this ingredient. It’s a tad pricey, but definitely worth it.

Avocado: Unless you live under a rock like Patrick Star, you should be aware of this creamy fruit. Get those good fats in your system!

Nutritional yeast: A deactivated yeast that looks like a yellow powder. Sooo do not try to mix in the yeast that you would use to make bread rise. That would be interesting, to say the very least. Nutritional yeast has some B vitamins going on and it will add another savory note to your toast. Find it in the bulk section of your local healthy foods store.

Liquid aminos: If you enjoy soy sauce, you’ll like this stuff. Mine came in a bottle with a spray nozzle (therefore the recipe calls for 3 “sprays”). Not sure if that’s the correct terminology but hopefully you get the gist. This is what I have. It’s made from soybeans and apparently it’s a healthy alternative to soy sauce.

Nori: Aka seaweed. If you don’t care for seaweed, you can leave this ingredient out. It tastes a little salty and a little like the sea… so salty. I used a small snack sheet of dried nori. Some people will munch on it straight out of the package, but I’m not quite so adventurous. The nori won’t add much concerning nutrition, although it is low in fat and calories.

Toasted sesame seeds: You can buy sesame seeds already toasted, so save yourself time and pick up the toasty variety. Sesame seeds contain some protein, vitamins, and minerals, plus they’re a tasty addition to your snack.

There you go! Now you’re all toast educated… and maybe even a little hungry.

P.S. You could always use a little more coconut oil or nutritional yeast. Yumm.

P.P.S. There’s no need to add salt, since the nutritional yeast, liquid aminos, and nori will all introduce a little bit of saltiness.
