This tomatillo guacamole toast is the perfect way to use summer veggies.

The Deets
End-of-summer goodness: chili crunch butter corn toast with tomatillo guacamole, heirloom tomatoes, and fresh basil. It’s a great way to use the last of the summer veggies, and cooking the corn in the chili butter gives it just the right amount of heat. You’ll take the corn off the cob and add it to a small oven-safe dish (I used a mini cocotte from Le Creuset!). Add a little chili crisp and cook it up in the oven. Then, make your guacamole with tomatillos, garlic, lime, cilantro, jalapeño, red onion, and avocado. Once your gauc is complete, toast up some sourdough, layer the gauc and corn and tomatoes on top of the bread. I added a pinch of sea salt on top as well. My favorite sea salt is from Maldon! Top everything off with fresh basil and voila! This is such a delicious and refreshing summer toast, I can’t recommend it enough! It’s a great way to use the best of summer veggies in a lunch dish.
