# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It's genuinely ready in 10 minutes, which means you can sleep five more minutes and still eat something real.
  • One avocado somehow tastes fancy and indulgent even though it costs less than a coffee.
  • The everything bagel seasoning does all the heavy lifting, so you feel like you seasoned something interesting when you basically just sprinkled.
02 -
  • Timing matters more than technique here, because warm toast plus cold avocado is the whole vibe, and it disappears fast if you don't work quickly.
  • A truly ripe avocado should be the star, not a crutch for a mediocre one, so take the extra day to find a good one rather than forcing an underripe situation.
03 -
  • Rub your warm toast with a cut garlic clove before spreading the avocado if you want a deeper savory note that still feels subtle and natural.
  • Squeeze your lemon juice directly onto the mashed avocado and stir immediately to prevent browning, and this actually extends the life of your toast if you're making it ahead by a few minutes.
