Impress Your Mother-In-Law Avocado Toast

I’m pretty sure that my mother-in-law was impressed with me long before trying this toast. Yep. I dazzled her many years ago with just my basic presence. I mean, come on – it’s me.

I thought she was…ya know…all right. Totalllly kidding. She had me at hello.

She is hands down the best mother-in-law a girl could ask for. Seriously I’m not just saying that because I know she’s probably going to read this. (but let’s watch our p’s and q’s, k?)

Through the years she has cooked many delizioso meals for me and my husband. And being The Kitchen Snob, of course my instinct was to try and wow her by making this buttery, spicy avocado toast. I’ll show her my talented culinary skills!

Well…no…it’s not exactly fair. She has spent hours and hours in the kitchen making homemade ravioli, lasagna, Thanksgiving dinners, and an array of amazing salads. So naturally I figured it was sufficient to whip up toast this easy toast in 5 minutes and say “hey, let’s call it even.” Hmmm maybe I’m not scoring as many impressing points as I thought?

However, she did really like this avocado toast and she said she’s made it several times since. But who wouldn’t? It’s a v o c a d o. Who can resist it’s buttery creamy holy healthiness? Not us!
