Smoked Salmon Toast

A piece of hearty, whole grain toast lathered with smashed avocado and slices of smoked salmon is a delicious way to keep midday hunger at bay. “Salmon is a fatty fish that’s a great source of omega-3 fatty acids and thought to help reduce inflammation in the body.”

Pesto and salmon may seem like an unusual combination, but after one bite of this toast, we trust you’ll agree that it’s unusually delicious. 

Use homemade or store-bought pesto for this filling and flavorful breakfast. If you’re going the store-bought route, opt for a refrigerated variety. It will taste fresher and look more vibrant than a shelf-stable brand.

Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons basil pesto
  • 2 slices whole-grain bread, toasted
  • 2 ounces sliced smoked salmon
  • 2 teaspoons teaspoons lemon zest (from 1 lemon)

Instructions:

Spread 1 tablespoon pesto on each piece of toast. Top evenly with salmon. Sprinkle with lemon zest.
