Ingredients

• 4 slices whole grain bread (about 4 oz) (115g)
• 1 ripe avocado (about 7 oz) (200g)
• 6 oz smoked salmon (170g)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice (0.5 fl oz) (15ml)
• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (0.5 fl oz) (15ml)
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (1g)
• 1/4 teaspoon sea salt (1g)
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill (0.3 oz) (8g)
• 1 tablespoon capers, optional (0.35 oz) (10g)

Instructions

1. Toast the slices of whole grain bread until golden and crisp.
2. While the bread is toasting, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.
3. Add the lemon juice, olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper to the avocado. Mash together with a fork until mostly smooth but still a bit chunky.
4. Spread the mashed avocado evenly over each slice of toasted bread.
5. Top each toast with slices of smoked salmon.
6. Sprinkle chopped fresh dill and capers (if using) over the top.
7. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Tip

For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice just before serving.
