If I had my cafe, there’s no doubt this toast would be the menu’s star. It’s loaded with protein, healthy fats, essential nutrients and antioxidants to satisfy your cravings and keep you full.
For my toast, I choose freshly baked sourdough or gluten-free bread, depending on what’s available. For the textures to combine nicely, ensure your avocado is ripe, and the tofu has been drained.
I buy edamame beans frozen, so it’s easy to prepare. I air-fried them to make them crispy yet soft, but you could also boil them.
Sourdough, avocado, tofu, nutritional yeast, edamame and tahini are high in protein, making this toast an excellent meal for someone trying to build muscle or control their sugar levels.
Also, high- protein foods supply amino acids required for collagen production, and with this combination of ingredients, you’ll get a plentiful supply.
In addition, all these ingredients and other spices used in the recipe are full of healthful phytonutrients to nourish your body from head to toe! This recipe is a must-try!
I return to this recipe whenever I don’t feel like cooking anything complex but still want a balanced meal. It makes a perfect breakfast or lunch giving you that fancy restaurant toast vibe
