Spooky Avocado Breakfast Toast Faces: A Halloween Delight

How to Make the Avocado Toast Recipe:

To begin, gather all your ingredients, including bread for toast, ripe avocados, lemon juice, cherry tomatoes, walnuts (optional-not necessary if you have allergies), radishes, black olives, red sweet pepper, pickled mini cucumbers, and dried seaweed leaves.  If these topping might be hard for your kids to accept other great options, especially if you have pickier eaters, might be a hardboiled egg sliced or scrambled eggs, bacon bits or slices of crispy bacon, sausage crumbles or links, shredded cheese or other breakfast foods your family loves.

Start by toasting your slice of bread. Options are to toast the bread in a pan or skillet, first spread the toast with a little butter before pan toasting. Or use an oven, or toaster until it reaches your desired level of crispiness. Set the toasted bread aside til ready to use.

While that toasts, prepare the avocados by cutting them in half, removing the pits, and scooping the flesh into a bowl. Using a fork, mash the avocado pulp with lemon juice and add a pinch of salt if desired. 

This step will create a creamy and tangy avocado spread that serves as the base for your toast faces.

Now, spread the mashed avocado mixture generously onto each slice. Sprinkle of salt if desired (especially if you chose not to add it to the mash)

Get ready for the creative part!

Use the various ingredients to make circles for eyes from radishes, olives, and cherry tomatoes. The walnuts can be used to create quirky and funky hair on top of the avocado spread. For the mouth, cut the dried seaweed leaves (or spinach)  into a smiling or spooky shape and position it on the toast. As for the nose and tongue, slice the red sweet pepper to form a nose and cut one of the pickled mini cucumbers into a tongue shape. Arrange all the elements to complete the adorable and festive faces on your avocado toast. 

Also this part could be a really fun family activity have the toppings cut into shapes and let the kids choose which pieces they would like to add to build their faces.  This will help them be more adventurous to try different items, and possibly help them try it, if they have the freedom to make the face.

Storage and Make-Ahead Tips:

The Halloween avocado breakfast toast faces are best enjoyed immediately after assembly to preserve their visual appeal. However, you can prepare the sliced veggies the night before, and keep them is sealed containers in the fridge. 

If you find you don’t have time to prep the avocados, I suggest buying a packaged version, that is just mashed avocado and salt, and open it that morning.  Technically you can make the mashed avocado spread ahead of time and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. To prevent the spread from turning brown, cover the surface with plastic wrap, pressing it gently against the spread to remove any air but just remember for this fresh is best!
