Grilled Avocado Toast Recipe (with Cheddar)

Stir the olive oil and garlic together in a small bowl. Let it sit for a couple of minutes so the flavor blooms.

Dice the tomato, finely chop the red onion, and mash or slice the avocado. Keep the black pepper ready to season.

Lightly brush one side of each bread slice with the garlic oil. Grill in a pan, sandwich press, or on a grill over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until crisp; watch closely so it doesn’t burn.

Spread the avocado over the warm toast. Sprinkle on tomato and red onion, then season with black pepper.

Add the cheddar and return to the heat for 1-2 minutes to soften it slightly. Slice and serve right away.
