Garlic Mushroom Avocado Toast
Ok this is garlic mushroom avocado toast story is a quickie. We just had to document this before we lose the delicious moment. If you’re an avocado toast and mushroom fan then you must make this! We had some leftover mushrooms and a little bit of everything else. So a last minute meal turned into a keeper.
Quick Avocado Toast with Garlic Mushrooms
We were needing a quick lunch at the studio and figured avocado toast lunch doesn’t get any quicker than 5 minutes. Then we found mushrooms in the fridge and sautéed those up with some garlic. That took about 7 minutes. And topped it all off with a handful of sunflower seeds and we had a wowzer-delicious lunch.

There’s so many possibilities for the toppings. You can keep it simple, or go all out and have each toast like a huge meal.
- chopped nuts
