You all know how much I love Florida Strawberries

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! It’s Florida Strawberry season and I couldn’t be more excited. Due to an ideal climate this year, Florida Strawberries are amazingly delicious and oh so juicy this year! Lately, I have become a tad obsessed with avocado toast. If you follow me on Instagram, you may have noticed one or two or 20 posts.

So I started thinking about how I could combine my love for avocados and strawberries and the natural answer was Strawberry Avocado Toast! I have played around with this recipe for a bit and I feel I have hit perfection! The sweetness from the strawberries is a perfect complement to the chunky avocado. Topping the toast with a good quality salt makes the most delicious sweet and salty combination!

These Strawberry Avocado Toast are perfect for a healthy breakfast, lunch or even an appetizer. I recently cut them in quarters and served them on a platter. It was a beautiful presentation and my friends loved having a healthy appetizer choice.

My kids can’t get enough strawberries!  They are packed with Vitamin C so I love serving them for breakfast, we add them to their lunch boxes and they are a perfect afternoon snack.  Florida’s growing season is from December through April, and we love buying local strawberries. You can find them in your local grocer by looking for the Fresh from Florida logo.  Florida is the country’s second largest strawberry producer in the country.

Healthy Family Recipes Featuring Florida Strawberries

Adding Florida strawberries to a recipe is an easy way to pack some nutrition into your day. Not only are Florida strawberries loaded with Vitamin C, they’re also high in fiber, folic acid and potassium. They’re low in calories and some research indicates strawberries may help fight cancer and heart disease.

Tips for Making Avocado Toast with Strawberries

• Use whole-grain bread to keep this recipe healthy. I love bread with seeds
• Make sure your avocado is ripe before slicing.Gently squeeze the avocado without applying pressure from your fingertips, as this can cause bruising. If the avocado yields to firm, gentle pressure, it is ripe and ready to eat.
• Do not over-mix the avocados. They should be left chunky.
• Add seeds to the toppings. It is such a great way to get in those healthy seeds. Chia, Flax and Hemp Seeds are perfect toppings.
• Add some eggs if you would like to add some protein to your toast.
• Use a great quality salt. I love using maldon salt flakes, they are a perfect addition to these delicious toasts.
