What’s up, people? Are you ready for another round of the fabulousness that is Bundtbakers?
I mean, I can’t hear you through my laptop so I’m assuming you all responded with a resounding “Yes!” This month’s theme is Strange but good flavor combinations. I found some weird ones out there, particularly this avocado pound cake with raspberry glaze. But I think what astounded me the most was the thought of mixing chocolate and onion. What?
September is coming to an end…. and it’s still 90+ degrees here. C’mon, sun…give a sista a break! Still, I try to counteract the heat with easy drinks like the calimocho or basil beerade, but it’s not enough. Seriously, I’m freaking melting over heah <in my best mob voice>! Read More…
It’s not the heat (although I’m not a big fan of heat), it’s the humidity. Humidity is not really a thing in L.A., but for some reason it’s here and it brought along it’s best friend, the mosquito. Read More…
So…I’ve kinda been addicted to putting lavender in everything lately. Last month, I put it in some white chocolate chunk cookies; pretty damn good, people. This go round I’ve added it to a lemon bundt cake and let me tell you, lemon and lavender pair very well-like Don Draper and a freshly made old fashioned. Read More…
Is there anything new I can write about Avocado Toast?
Probably not, so I’m just going to write down the Top 5 things I love about it.
1. Easy
Seriously, I can’t think of an easier homemade breakfast. First, you toast bread. Then, you spread avocado and sprinkle stuff on it. Done.
2. Fast
There’s not that much one needs to do to make this breakfast. Refer to the steps written above.
3. Healthy
Yes , avocado toast is loaded with fat-not the type that gives you a muffin top, but the good kind. Plus, it’s packed with vitamins C and B-6 so your immune system will be all boosted up.
4. Lemons
I love lemons. I love it in my Ginger Lemon Tea, Basil Beerade and especially in my Lemon Velvet Cake. In my opinion, avocado toast ain’t avocado toast unless it has tons of lemon juice; and I thoroughly enjoy the tart and bright flavor it brings.
5. Savory
Most days I want something sweet for breakfast, like a muffin or my absolute favorite, Waffles of Insane Greatness. But sometimes I want something that’s not going to completely spike my blood sugar and make me power-nap ’til lunch. Enter the brilliance of avocado toast.
What about you? What do you love about avocado toast?
