Avocado Toast - Try this over-the-top Avocado toast, made with chili paste, lime juice, crumbled feta cheese, seeds and balsamic glaze, for a filling and flavor packed breakfast that'll keep you going all day.
Hi guys. Let’s talk breakfast! What’s your favorite? Pancakes? Toast? Eggs? Cereal? Yogurt and Granola? Leftover pizza? And do you eat something different every day? Or can you get into obsessive territory like me? I’ve been eating this avocado toast for months. Before that, it was peanut butter toast with fried eggs & sriracha on top, and before that my Sweet Potato Skillet.
This Avocado Toast is so good. It's a bit spicy (you can dial it down or leave it out if you like), a bit sweet and a bit salty. I love it. It’s also full of healthy fats and keeps me full for a couple of hours, which is especially good on tougher workout days, because I can get by with just a protein smoothie after exercising and feel great until dinner.
I load my avocado toast up. There are 10 ingredients here (including salt and pepper). But, you don’t have to use them all if you don’t want to. If you don’t like feta, skip it. Don’t have both seeds? Use whatever one you like. But this way is my favorite.
I toast my bread until it’s really crunchy. In a bowl I mix a good squeeze of lime juice and a teaspoon or two of chili paste (Sambal Oelek – I use this one by Huy Fong) in with my mashed avocado. Then I spread that on the toast and crack fresh salt and pepper over. Next, I sprinkle on the pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds. Finally, I crumble on some feta cheese and drizzle the whole thing with balsamic glaze. Perfection. Try it out if you're an avocado lover! Pin it for later!

Hi! I'm Jacqueline. I create the recipes here, photograph, and share them with you so you can feed your family delicious, fresh food.
I love to cook, read, sway in my hammock, take photos, and renovate my cabin. I drink coffee and red wine and I'm just as happy at my grill as I am with a whisk and mixing bowl.
Wow....not only is this a great brunch idea, it would work as an appetizer too. Love the balsamic. Feta is in a league all its own. And who can resist avocado...in fact I was just eating some right now.
What a great idea to serve this as an appetizer!
This is definitely a healthy snack which will keep you full of energy!I will be eating like a king if I have this for breakfast... Lol
haha, thanks Fred!
We love avocados and these toasts look so yum. Perfect for healthy lunch.
Thanks!
This sounds like my kind of breakfast. I've pinned it to my "better breakfast" board. I just bought a pack of Sambal Oelek and now you've inspired me in a great new way of using it. Thank you.
Thanks for pinning Gillian 🙂
This looks so delicious. I love avocado so I know this would be a great healthy breakfast.
Thank you!
scrumptious looking snack. pinned this absolutely.
Thank you for pinning 🙂
This is breakfast, lunch and dinner for me!! Would also make a great appetizer at my next gathering!!
Yes, I love the idea of using it as an appetizer, hadn't thought of that. 🙂
I agree with the other commenters, This would also make a great appetizer! You hit the spot with all these flavors, salty, creamy, savory - delicious! Pinned for later! I found you at the weekend potluck!
Thanks for visiting and pinning 🙂
Yum! This is just the snack I need to get me through the afternoon, which is when I face real weakness and get all snacky for something not so healthy. The textures and flavors look amazing.
Thanks Amy. My husband gets snacky for not so healthy food in the evening. I should make this for him next time!
This looks amazing! I love avocados on toast but for some reason never thought of combining them with feta or balsamic glaze. I will definitely try it out very soon, thanks you for sharing.
So good with feta and balsamic, hope you love it too!
Perfect breakfast to keep you full and healthy. Avocado toast is the best, thank you for sharing this version!
Thanks Ali!
Avocado Toast is one of my favourite breakfast treats and yours looks delicious. I love the sound of the Feta with the chilli and the seeds, I'll be trying this soon 🙂
I hope you like it Sarah, I've mine for the day already today 🙂
My go to breakfast at the moment is a bowl of oatmeal with blueberries, slivered almonds, cinnamon & cashew milk. Super simple. When I want to treat myself, I will have some mashed avocado with spelt bread. Loving all the other delicious little goodies you used to dress yours up with. Definitely going to give these a try next time avo toast is on the menu.
Your oatmeal sounds great. I've been making peanut butter chocolate overnight oats for my kids lately, they love it. Do you have a recipe for spelt bread? I've only made buns with spelt once or twice before but next time I'm at Costco I want to pick up their big bag of spelt flour.
A great take on plain old avocado toast. I love the additional textures and flavors you've added to a great standard!
Thanks Lynne!
I love the toppings you put on your avocado toast! Definitely gets me excited to eat!
Thanks Derek, it's so good, it's worth taking the time!
I love anything with avocado. Pinning this! #weekendpotluck
Thank you for visiting and pinning!
I love avocado toasts and my go-to recipe is also very similar - I use dukkah instead of just the pumpkin seeds and no balsamic vinegar. THough the idea of balsamic vinegar on it sounds delicious. I might try that that next time.
I just checked out your recipe, haven't tried Dukkah but it sounds really nice. The balsamic glaze is so nice here.
This sounds delicious and healthy and would be perfect for any time of the day. I just love fancy toast!
I love fancy toast too, bread is one of my favorite things. (although I say about almost every food, haha)
This is sooooo good. I made this last night as a snack being that we had a late lunch and didn’t want a heavy dinner. I didn’t want it to end! Great flavor. I used 1 tsp of chili paste and I thought it was perfect....not spicy!
Hello Heather, I'm so glad you loved this, its a regular for me and my favorite toast. Thanks for your comment!
