This tomatillo avocado toast is full of flavor and so easy to make.
The Deets
Level up your avocado toast with tomatillos! You might have noticed I’ve been cooking with these a ton recently and that’s because they are so delicious and have so much flavor. This is a tomatillo avocado toast with cucumbers and spicy everything furikake seasoning. I love the freshness from cucumbers here and it balances out the tangyiness from the tomatillos. I cut them into a ribbon shape which makes the toast aesthetically pleasing 🙂 and a little more fun! I love adding furikake, too as a topping. Furikake is a savory Japanese seasoning blend that typically contains dried fish (or other protein), sesame seeds, dried seaweed flakes, sugar, and soy sauce. You can add furikake to many things for just a little extra flavor. Overall, this tomatillo avocado toast is a delish quick and easy lunch option (and healthy!). You could add eggs to this for a breakfast toast and level it up. If you loved this toast be sure to check out my full collection of recipes of toasts.
