By this point, it seems almost impossible that avocado toast was ever not a thing. While it’s pretty incredible that a few simple ingredients — toasted bread, smashed avocado, salt and pepper — together have become such a culinary icon, it also makes sense. The combination of the creamy, fatty, sweet richness of this lovely fruit on top of a burnished slice of crusty bread proves that these ingredients are just natural BFFs.
And the best part? You don’t have to go to a coffee shop or an all-day cafe to get a deluxe version of avocado toast. Our kitchen team has developed a gorgeous, silky turmeric tahini sauce, spiked with hemp seed oil, which is a great source of polyunsaturated and essential fatty acids. Once this is whisked up, toast some artisan bread from your neighborhood bakery, top with local eggs (we like ’em poached), drizzle with the sauce and sprinkle on salt, pepper and hemp hearts. You can find hemp seed oil and hemp hearts at your neighborhood health food market, or order from a company like EVO Hemp, a Colorado-based company that ships to Pennsylvania!
