Notes
Top Tips
- Do NOT skip the salt & pepper, especially if you're not using the Everything Bagel seasoning. They are the flavor booster!
- To jazz up/add some zing, squeeze some lime juice over your avocado.
- If you want the avocado to be the dominant flavor, be careful to not add too many veggies! The vegetables (especially the tomatoes) could easily overpower the avocado flavor.
- Feel free to sub the bagels with regular whole wheat bread and use the Everything Bagel seasoning to get a tasty bagel avocado toast still!
- For storage & meal prep instructions, scroll above in the post.
- Feel free to just eat it open-faced, or as a bagel avocado sandwich!
- I personally like eating them open-faced so I can sneak in more veggies, but I do like the sandwich options when I want it to be packable for lunch!
