This week has been pretty crazy but that’s usually how it goes before you go on vacation right? Rich, Linden, and I hit up the Healthy Family Expo this week which was so much fun. And yes I got a baller VIP pass but it was still full of free snacks, goodies, and samples. If you can go next year, do it and then sit back and enjoy your kid’s 2-3 hour nap. Get there early because it gets insane really quick.
But seriously if you want to send me some swag or tickets, I appreciate it.
We’re also preparing to spend next week in Cuba and as I usually do before travelling, I have prepared very little. I mean….swimsuit and deet, what else do I need? Right? RIGHT? Yeah stay tuned for that one….I might have a few regrets on packing.
So with everything going on I haven’t been doing much experimenting but I thought I might share my favourite fancy toasts. I can be a bit fanatical about my avocado toast and if you haven’t tried it with sauerkraut yet WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH YOUR LIFE?? Sorry…I get a bit passionate.
So if you’re looking for some inspiration for your plain toast here are my favourite toast combos:
CLASSIC AVOCADO
- spread coconut oil on warm toast
- add sliced avocado
- squeeze some lime juice on top
- top with sauerkraut, smoked salt, and fresh herbs (rosemary or cilantro is my fav)
PEAR AND CREAM CHEESE
- spread some tofutti cream cheese (plain) on the toast
- add sliced pear or apple
- top with fresh herbs (thyme or basil) and nuts or seeds
MANGO PESTO
- spread ’em with cilantro pesto (THIS BRAND WILL BRING YOU TO YOUR KNEES)
- add sliced mango
- top with flax seeds or nuts and fresh cilantro
Here’s a behind the scenes peak for all you VIP readers: Have a great week everyone and wish me luck in Cuba!
