Avocado Toast with Peach Mango Salsa

Calling all avo-toast lovers! This is for you and you will love the sweet background on this clever version. I also like to add the cucumber for a perfect crunch to go along with the soft chewy bites. Could not be any easier! Enjoy. 

Ingredients:

• 2 slices of bread (your choice)

• 1 ripe avocado

• 1 mini cucumber, sliced

• Salt and pepper to taste

• ½ cup Desert Pepper Peach Mango Salsa

Directions:

1. Toast the bread until golden.

2. Prepare the avocado by mashing the avocado in a bowl. Pro tip: can add lime or lemon juice to keep the color fresh (but is optional). Add salt and pepper.

3. Spread the mashed avocado on the toasted bread.

4. Next add 3-4 cucumber slivers for that nice crunch.

5. Top with the peach mango salsa on each slice.

Enjoy as a delicious brunch, breakfast, lunch or snack! 

Hearty Egg and DOUBLE Cheese Spice Bagel Sandwich

Not too sure I have met anyone who doesn’t love a bagel packed with taste and heartiness! Love just the right dose of spice from the seasoning and salsa with this easy recipe. This recipe makes for one bagel. Repeat the process for how many you need to make. 

Ingredients:

• 1 bagel of choice, sliced

• 1 slice of cheddar cheese (or cheese of choice)

• 1 fried egg

• 1 tbsp of cream cheese

• Handful of spinach

• 2 tbsp of Desert Pepper Cantina Salsa

• Seasonings: everything but the bagel and/or crushed red pepper flakes 

Directions:

1. Cut the bagel in half and toast it. 

2. Next fry an egg in a pan and place your cheese on top until just melted, set aside.

3. On one slice of the bagel, spread cream cheese. Next add your favorite seasonings. I like everything but the bagel seasoning and a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes. On this same slice, add your fresh spinach.

4. Now place the slightly cooled egg with the melted cheese on the other slice of the bagel. Add 1-2 tbsp of the salsa. 

5. Can serve open faced or simply put it all together and get ready for some flavor.

Easy and done!
