Make

Easy and tasty for a night where you don't have much time, if not the most exciting meal ever.
0 HelpfulThe stackers were great. Didn't miss the toast. Felt weird to eat salad with a "breakfast" dish but the flavors were okay together.
0 HelpfulSimple but tasty. Definitely satiating, but probably not the most filling or interestingly flavored meal. Still liked it, because we like avocado toast and salad. Some of the ingredients for the salad seem larger than necessary for the serving size (maybe cut all salad ingredient measurements in half).
0 HelpfulA super ripe avocado was a must; mine was so so (a bit too hard) and I didn’t realize what a star it would be in the meal. We had these with two eggs a piece and they were delicious.
0 HelpfulThe avocado toast was so simple and delicious. We used sourdough bread and it was so good. The salad was pretty good but nothing special.
