Avocado toast grilled cheese. Is that a thing? Apparently yes!

I mean look at this. Fresh and pretty. And before we dig in, let me tell you why today is a special day. It’s #brunchweek. If you’re not familiar with avocado toast, you’ve been missing out.

What is avocado toast?

In short, it is a delicious sandwich that you can enjoy for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or somewhere in between. But this version gets even better because I’m adding bacon cheddar cheese from Cabot Cheese. Let me repeat that. Bacon. Cheddar. Cheese. Cabot. So each bite has a flavor combination of garlic, cheese, avocado, and a fried egg on top.

Who invented avocado toast?

According to this article, it was Bill Granger put the now-famous snack on the menu of his Darlinghurst cafe, in Sydney’s inner suburbs, in 1993.

How to clean avocado skin?

While you don’t eat the skin of an avocado, you must rinse an avocado before you enjoy it. Easy enough, scrub the peel with a produce brush and dry it with a clean or paper towel.

For a perfect avocado toast, ingredient quality is key. Use fresh, crusty whole-wheat bread you can find.

Garlic bread is classic comfort food. It’s a staple. The avocado just makes it better. Like WAY better. Trust me on this one! How can you beat creamy avocado toast and the gooey melty goodness of grilled cheese? Mix them both! And before I hypnotize you with the best avocado toast, let’s welcome Brunch Week!
