To celebrate the launch of my newest low carb cookbook ‘Keto in 15 Minuten’, I want to treat you to one of my favorite quick breakfast and lunch recipes from the new book: 3 Variations of Avocado Toast, no bread needed.
The base for the avocado toast are our ALL GOOD seed crackers, made with sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds and chia seeds. The crackers are gluten free, low carb and vegan. A delicious and keto friendly alternative to bread.
The vegan version of this avocado toast has finely sliced chili pepper, an excellent toppings if you love spicy food. For a milder variety, make sure to remove the seeds before slicing the chili. Did you know that chili contains a special plant compound called ‘capsaicin’ that will help your body to stay warm and may even stimulate fat-burning? It will also help you to regulate your appetite and stay satisfied for longer.
If you prefer to cook vegetarian, top the avocado toast with a poached or softly boiled egg. Delicious for breakfast or as a quick lunch with a cup of fresh vegetable soup.
Good quality eggs (from your own backyard chickens or organic free-range) are particularly high in protein, vitamin D and B12, iron and choline – an essential nutrient to keep your cells young, to strengthen your muscles, to feed your brain and to assist your liver in burning fat.
The third version with smoked salmon is a great source of omega 3 fats, important to lower inflammation and keep your immune system strong. I love serving the avocado toast with smoked salmon for lunch with a simple salad. It makes a fabulous brunch recipe too!
Which version of avocado toast will you try first? The vegan version with spicy chili, the vegetarian version with a softly boiled egg or the omega-3 rich version with smoked wild salmon?
Do you have other ideas for fun toppings? I’d love to try them all so definitely leave your suggestions in the comments :)
More delicious low carb recipes coming soon!
