Avocado Toast
What better way to start your morning than with a superfood! Avocado toast is one of my all-time favorite breakfasts. It’s so quick, easy, and healthy! Avocados contribute unsaturated “good” fats, and help the body absorb fat-soluble nutrients Vitamins A, D, K, and E. Spread on top of toasted gluten free bread and add an egg for an extra source of protein, then drizzle with avocado oil for oleic acid, healthy fat, and full of good cholesterol! Health tip: Top your toast with a dash of crushed red pepper flakes, which increase the body’s ability to dissolve fibrin, a substance integral to the formation of blood clots.
