Emily’s Tips & Tricks
- Toast tip: Toast bread to golden perfection. Aim for crispy exterior that can support the avocado weight without getting soggy underneath.
- Bread: Use high-quality bread for the best flavor! Sourdough or an artisan bread is my favorite choice, but the most important thing is that you pick one out for you!
- Shortcuts: I prefer fresh avocado, but if you don’t mind packaged mashed avocado, that is an easy shortcut – that won’t go bad on your counter!
