Most mornings I make a green smoothie, and that stays with me until lunch…but this morning I felt that I needed something a bit different. I have a loaf of Ezekiel 4:9 bread in the freezer (because I don’t make many sandwiches lately), and thought that toast sounded good…the problem is that jam doesn’t really fill me up for very long…sometimes I add peanut or almond butter, but I wasn’t feeling like either this morning. So I was looking through the fruit drawer in my fridge, and came across an
avocado. GENIUS! I could make some avocado toast! There are so many ways to make avocado toast, and I think that it’s all in your perspective. I sometimes make my avocado toast with avocado slices, tomatoes and capers. I’ve even melted some Teese halfway through the toasting process, and then spread avocado mixed with some black pepper and strained salsa over the top of it (SUPER delish). This morning I didn’t exactly feel like straining out my salsa, so I just went the simple route: 2 slices of toasted Ezekiel 4:9 bread (I ADORE this stuff! If you haven’t tried it, you MUST. It’s normally in the freezer section of your grocery store), with some avocado and simple seasoning (recipe to follow). I love that the fats from the avocado and the sprouted grains in the bread made a hearty-stick to your ribs kind of breakfast. I will admit that I chowed down on a small banana about an hour after I had my toast…but I think that’s more of a habit than anything else. I always try to have a banana as a mid-morning snack. So, long story short (I know, I know: too late), avocado toast is one of my favorite things. It fills me up, and tastes delicious. What more can a girl ask for?

That answers my question about whether Ezekiel bread is vegan. I didn’t see anything that didn’t sound vegan but I didn’t want to buy it until I was sure.
Can you give me more info on your Tofu X-Press now that you have used it for a while?
Thanks,
Shari
How good does THAT sound????? Thanks for the idea – think I’ll give it a whirl as I simply CANNOT get enough avacado!!!! Thanks!!!
