It’s almost silly to have a post dedicated to Avocado Toast. It’s so pervasive out here. It’s on every cafe menu, pops up on everyone’s Instagram feed, it’s practically omnipotent. But unlike cronuts or sweets with bacon in them, this is of a protected status. Simple things hardly ever go out of style, and avocado toast is equivalent to a little back dress. Always the right decision.

For my recipe today, I upped the creaminess by adding a little mascarpone and cut through it all with lemon and chili. It’s decadent, and simple, and wonderful. Enjoy!
