Although avocado toast has become an enormous fad, as evidenced by swirled avocado photography Instagram accounts, this avocado toast recipe has some Asian fusion flair. Created by Julia Turshen and featured on the blog Shutterbean, the homemade avocado kimchi toast features not just a smashed creamy fruit on toasted bread, but also a spicy cabbage-based dish.
The spicy kimchi tops the smashed avocado toast, plus there is cilantro, sesame seeds and a drizzle of tahini. Described as "spicy, creamy, nutty, seedy, tangy goodness," the avocado test recipe is a very unusual take on the breakfast or snack.
The toast recipe is not only an easy one to put together, appealing to busy, on the go people, it also shows how bloggers are continuing to meld popular food items into new concoctions.
