Grilled Avocado On Toast Martha Stewart Recipes

MASHED-AVOCADO AND EGG TOAST

Steps:

• Lightly mash avocado in a small bowl. Stir in egg and season with salt and pepper. Spread mixture over toast and sprinkle with chives.

GRILLED AVOCADO ON TOAST

Steps:

• Brush 1/2 avocado (pitted and peeled) with fresh lime juice and olive oil. Grill, cut side down, for 1 to 2 minutes, creating grill marks. Turn to create crosshatch marks, and grill for 1 minute more. Meanwhile, brush 1 side of a slice of bread with olive oil, and grill, about 30 seconds per side. Top bread with thin slices of parmesan and the grilled avocado. Mash with a fork, brush with olive oil and salt.

GRILLED PIZZAS WITH TOMATOES AND AVOCADO

Steps:

• Heat a grill to medium. Clean and lightly oil hot grill. Divide pizza dough into 4 balls. On a lightly floured work surface, stretch or roll dough into 6-inch rounds. Lightly brush both sides of each with olive oil and transfer to grill. Cook until undersides are lightly charred and bubbles form all over top, 1 to 2 minutes. With tongs, flip dough and grill until lightly charred, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board. Top crusts with goat cheese, tomatoes, spinach, avocado, oregano, and basil. To serve, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

AVOCADO TOAST WITH GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Place bread slices on a baking sheet under the preheated broiler until toasted, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Mix together mashed avocados, red onion, and cilantro in a bowl. Spread on toasted bread and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
• Return to broiler until cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes.

AVOCADO ON TOAST

Steps:

• Cut the avocado in half and carefully remove its stone, then scoop out the flesh into a bowl. Squeeze in the lemon juice then mash with a fork to your desired texture. Season to taste with sea salt, black pepper and chilli flakes. Toast your bread, drizzle over the oil then pile the avocado on top.

TOMATO-AVOCADO TOASTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Slice baguette diagonally into sixteen 1/2-inch-thick slices; brush both sides with a total of olive oil. Bake on a baking sheet until golden, about 8 minutes.
• Halve avocado lengthwise and remove pit; scoop flesh into a small bowl. Mash with lemon juice; season with coarse salt and ground pepper. Spread on toasted bread; top with grape tomatoes.

GRILLED AVOCADO ON TOAST (MARTHA STEWART)

Steps:

RIGATONI PASTA PIE (MARTHA STEWART)

Steps:

• In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook pasta until slightly underdone (I cooked mine for 12 minutes when the box indicated 14 minutes). One pound of pasta should be cooked in 6 quarts of water, make sure you are using a big enough pot so the pasta doesn't stick together. When done, rinse in cold water and drain again. Toss pasta with 1 Tablespoon olive oil to coat. Set aside.
• Heat remaining 1 Tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef. Cook, stirring occasionally until browned. Add garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and pepper. Cook 2 minutes more.
• Add crushed tomatoes; simmer until thickened, about 20 minutes.
• Toss pasta with Parmesan cheese. Butter a 9-inch springform pan. Tightly pack pasta into pan, standing each piece on end. Spread meat sauce on top of pasta.
• Push the meat sauce into the pasta holes filling each one up. Stuffing the meat into the holes is a weirdly satisfying task. Enough said.
• Place in a 400 degree oven for 15 minutes. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top and bake another 10-15 minutes until cheese is golden. Remove from oven and let stand for 15 minutes. Run a knife around the edge to loosen and then unmold.
• Cut into wedges and serve with any remaining meat sauce you might have.

SOUTHWEST GRILLED AVOCADOS

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high heat. Remove pits from avocados and brush first with lemon juice, then extra virgin olive oil.
• Place avocados skin side down on grill for 2 minutes, turn and grill for 2 more minutes.
• With a spatula, carefully remove avocados from grill and spoon salsa into seed pits.

GRILLED-FISH TACOS WITH ROASTED-CHILE-AND-AVOCADO SALSA

Steps:

• Place the peppers directly on the burner of a gas stove over high heat or on a grill. Just as each section turns puffy and black, turn the pepper with tongs to prevent overcooking. (If you don't have a gas stove, place the peppers on a baking pan, and broil in the oven, turning as each side becomes charred.) Transfer the peppers to a large bowl, and cover immediately with plastic wrap. Let the peppers sweat until they are cool enough to handle, about 15 minutes. Transfer the peppers to a work surface. Peel off the blackened skin, and discard. Cut peppers in half and remove seeds.
• Add peppers to the jar of a blender along with avocado, 1/4 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup chopped onion, 1/4 cup cilantro leaves, lime juice, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 3 tablespoons water. Blend until smooth; set aside.
• Preheat a grill pan over medium heat. Season halibut with remaining salt and pepper. Rub both sides of fish with remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and transfer to grill pan. Cook, turning once, until cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Remove from grill and cut into small pieces.
• Divide fish evenly among the tortillas. Place 1 tablespoon chopped onion and 1 tablespoon cilantro leaves over fish. Top each with a piece of tomato. Add salsa and squeeze over lime halves; serve immediately.

TOMATO AND AVOCADO SALAD

Steps:

• On a large plate or platter, arrange tomatoes and avocado. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

GRILLED AVOCADO TOAST

Steps:

• Combine olive oil and garlic.
• Cut bread diagonally into 1/2 inch slices.
• Brush each slice with oil.
• Place on a cookie sheet; broil or grill until golden, approximately 5 minutes.
• Top each slice with tomato, onion, avocado and cheese.
• Return to broiler for 5 to 10 minutes until avocados begin to blister and brown.

GRILLED TOFU WITH CHIMICHURRI ON TOAST

Steps:

• Combine red onion, parsley, oil, vinegar, oregano, garlic, and red-pepper flakes in a bowl; season with salt. Reserve 1/2 cup sauce for serving. Marinate tofu at room temperature in remaining sauce, basting occasionally, for 1 hour.
• Combine avocado and cucumber. Season with salt and black pepper. Squeeze lemon over salad, and drizzle with oil; gently toss to combine.
• Heat a grill (or grill pan) to medium; lightly oil hot grates. Lightly brush bread on both sides with marinade. Grill until crisp, about 2 minutes per side. Grill tofu until lightly charred, about 4 minutes per side. Serve on bread with reserved sauce, and avocado salad on the side.
