Shamrock Avocado Toast Seasonal (Printable Version)

Crisp toast topped with lemon-tossed shamrock avocado shapes and savory everything bagel seasoning.

# What You'll Need:

→ Bread

01 - 2 slices whole grain or sourdough bread

→ Avocado

02 - 1 ripe avocado
03 - 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

# Cooking Steps:

01 - Toast bread slices until golden and crisp using a toaster or grill pan.
02 - While bread toasts, halve the avocado, remove the pit, and carefully peel the flesh.
03 - Slice avocado thinly and use a shamrock-shaped cookie cutter or small sharp knife to cut shamrock shapes from the slices.
04 - In a small bowl, gently toss shamrock avocado pieces with lemon juice and salt to prevent oxidation.
05 - Arrange shamrock-shaped avocado on toasted bread slices.
06 - Sprinkle each toast generously with everything bagel seasoning.
07 - Top with fresh chives or microgreens if desired and serve immediately.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It takes barely fifteen minutes but looks like you actually planned your morning instead of rolling out of bed.
  • The everything bagel seasoning adds that salty, nutty crunch that makes you want to keep eating long after you're full.
  • Avocado on toast is forgiving, so even if your shamrocks come out lopsided, they still taste exactly right.
02 -
  • If your avocado is even slightly underripe, the shamrock cutter will slide through cleanly; if it's overripe, the pieces turn to paste—timing matters more than you'd think.
  • The lemon juice on the avocado isn't optional if you're assembling these more than five minutes before eating; without it, oxidation turns your beautiful green into a sad grayish-brown.
03 -
  • Buy avocados a day or two before you plan to make this; they ripen faster than you expect, and ripe-to-overripe happens overnight.
  • Toast the bread slightly less than you normally would, since the avocado will soften it slightly as they sit together on the plate.
