Ingredients
  

4 slices of whole grain bread

4 tablespoons tahini

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (for a vegan option)

1 ripe avocado, sliced

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Fresh herbs (such as cilantro or parsley) for garnish

Sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions
 

Toast the Bread: Begin by toasting the slices of whole grain bread until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.

    Prepare the Tahini Spread: In a small bowl, mix the tahini with honey or maple syrup, lemon juice, and sea salt until smooth. Adjust the sweetness by adding more honey or syrup if desired.

      Avocado Preparation: In another bowl, add sliced avocado and drizzle with a little lemon juice to prevent browning. Lightly mash with a fork or leave the slices whole for a more rustic look.

        Assemble the Toasts:

          - Spread a generous tablespoon of the tahini mixture evenly over each slice of toasted bread.

            - Layer the avocado slices on top of the tahini spread.

              Add Flavors: Sprinkle red pepper flakes (if using) and sesame seeds over the top for an extra crunch and a flavor boost.

                Garnish: Finish with freshly chopped herbs to add a burst of freshness.

                  Serve: Enjoy your delicious Tahini Toasts fresh, either as a snack, a light lunch, or a delicious breakfast option.
