Avocado Toast – Seven Spoons Review and Giveaway

Seven SpoonsBefore I start with a cliched, “Avocado Toast, where have you been all my life?”

Can I confess to another later book review? Well, this one I will confess was not as instantly a part of my system as the Kitchen Gypsy, but then again if you are Seven Spoons written by the fame Tara Brady of the Seven Spoons blog, it just might not matter.

My Mango Avocado Toast Story

Well to keep it simple – this girl can write and cook. Write almost as well, if not better than she can cook, an if you indulge with a comment, you might win my copy of the Seven Spoons book. A beautiful sturdy hardcover filled with beautiful recipes and lovely illustrations covering her eclectic heritage and inspiring today’s recipe for avocado toast made in honor of my darling daughter’s 13th birthday.

Avocado Toast

That less than seven pound bundle of joy, enters her teen years, well almost and mom had to get up and come up with something sort of close to a breakfast, and inspired by the book’s recipe, I cobbled up a creation something close to good stuff, the entire family loved it and I almost felt trendy.

Mango and Avocado Toast

I mean, I made something that graced all those cool windows in the city, the stuff I sort of sometimes turn my nose up at, but with the right seasoning and flavors becomes something lovely and gorgeous, with minimal, OK, make that relatively minimal effort, all for the cause of super mother hood. I have to confess, if that super part related to the work – 2016 just might be the year when I would oh so yearn to toss the super aside and settle for just plain old motherhood.

Why don’t I? That my friend I shall save for another recipe on a different day, but let us just say, money has something to do with it. For today, let us just stick to some really flavorful avocado toast.

And for more avocado goodness, consider this Spicy Avocado Toast with Fried Eggs and of course avocado hummus.
