Maxwell is going through an avocado phase. Every time he sees an avocado he starts kicking his feet and waving his arms. He is obsessed! I am glad because I get just as excited. Avocados make me want to do a happy dance! They are my favorite!

How to Make Avocado Toast
- I started with a loaf of crusty French bread.
- Next, I combined softened butter with minced garlic. I slathered my bread slices with lots of butter and garlic!
- I put the bread in the oven to get nice and toasty! It crisped right up and our house smelled like an Italian restaurant!
- I then spread mashed avocado on each garlic toast and added sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, and a little crushed red pepper.
The result? Buttery, garlicky, crunchy, creamy garlic avocado toast goodness! This garlic bread / avocado toast has everything going for it. It is pretty much the best thing ever. I think I will be eating this every day from now on. Mashed avocado for Maxwell and Garlic Bread Avocado Toast for mama:)
