What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Cheerful Choices: Guac-on-Rye! Tired of boring early morning breakfast choices? I can only eat a hard-boiled egg or a dish of Greek yogurt so many days in a row before I want to switch things up a bit. Last week I picked up an avocado at the Farmers Market. Granted, it wasn’t quite ripe so I needed to place it in a brown paper bag for a couple days to hasten the process. Nevertheless, it created a level of anticipation that energized my imagination. What you see is what you get. It did not disappoint. Perhaps you may try it, too.
GUAC-ON-RYE
Ingredients:
2 slices marble rye bread, deli-style, toasted
1 ripe avocado, peeled and pit removed
1/8 teaspoon everything but bagel seasoning
1/2 teaspoon lime juice
Baby spinach leaves, washed and patted dry
1 radish, thinly sliced
Instructions:
Place toast on a serving plate. Set aside. In a small bowl, slightly mash half the ripe avocado. Add everything but bagel seasoning and lime juice. Stir. Cut the remaining avocado into chunks. Gently fold chunks into the mashed avocado. Divide guacamole between the toasted marble rye slices. Add baby spinach leaves and radish slices. Serve immediately.
This is food from heaven, Gail!

I have noticed the avocados are looking “less than fresh”. 🍃🥑 Be choosy.

I’ve had guac on just about everything . . and yet, never on rye!
Obviously I have lived a sheltered life.

I’m baking rye bread today, and I have several avocados that need to be used.
Coincidence? I think not!
