Toast & Spreads
Tomato Basil Avocado Toast
Salting the tomato slices first and letting them rest draws out the extra moisture that would otherwise turn your toast soggy.

Ingredients
- 2 slices gluten-free bread
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 ripe avocado
- 5 fresh basil leaves, torn
- drizzle of olive oil
- black pepper to taste
Method
- 1
Lay the tomato slices on a paper towel, sprinkle with salt, and let sit for 10 minutes — this draws out excess water so your toast stays crisp instead of getting soggy underneath.
- 2
Toast the gluten-free bread until golden.
- 3
Mash the avocado and spread it over the toast.
- 4
Pat the tomato slices dry, arrange them over the avocado, and top with torn basil, a drizzle of olive oil, and black pepper.
