As a Filipino, I grew up with avocados in sweets, not savory dishes—yes, you read that right, sweets! For the longest time, I never really liked avocados on toast or in any savory meals. To me, they were just bland… until I discovered Hass avocados. Their creamier texture and smoother flavor made all the difference. In my opinion, they’re just better, and soon, I found myself obsessed. I never thought I’d crave avocado toast, but now, I totally do… every now and then, at least.
My absolute favorite way to enjoy it? Topped with grated hard-boiled egg (have you tried this?) and a drizzle of honey with chili flakes sprinkled on top. This combination is amazing – creamy, savory, sweet, and spicy. The egg adds a nice textural contrast, the honey balances the richness of the avocado, and the chili flakes bring a little heat to tie everything together. It’s the perfect bite, whether you’re having it for breakfast or as a snack.
