Sunny days make me the happiest girl in the whole world! We’re having amazing weather here in Cologne and in the meanwhile it’s raining a lot in Spain. ? We’ll leave Germany in a few weeks and although we love Spain, we’re going to miss this so much, especially the supermarkets, it’s so easy to find vegan and organic food here!
This is the first savory recipe of our healthy vegan breakfast recipes series. If you love savory things, you’re going to love this avocado, tomato bruschetta because it tastes great and is ready in less than 10 minutes. The recipe is incredibly simple, but is soooo good.
We used whole wheat seed bread, but feel free to use your favorite one. If you can’t eat gluten, choose some gluten-free bread or even some rice cakes, I love them and are pretty affordable.
Tips:
- Homemade bread tastes better and is much healthier. We love this easy rye and spelt bread because is so delicious and easy to make.
- Feel free to use any type of tomatoes. I like cherry tomatoes because they’re sweet and have an amazing flavor.
- Any other type of vinegar will work as well and you can also add lemon instead.
- Basil is my favorite herb to make bruschetta, but use any fresh or dried herb you have on hand. Dried oregano also tastes great and is so affordable.
- Garlic powder is perfect for those days you feel lazy.
- We didn’t toast the bread, but it’s up to you!

June 30, 2016 at 06:00Substitute grape tomatoes, they have a much richer flavor than the cherry tomatoes sold in the supermarket. You can also substitute unbleached white or wheat flour instead of spelt flour (which can be hard to find in some places).

June 30, 2016 at 11:47That´s my favourite kind of sandwich! I just love, love the avocado-tomato-basil combo. What I use instead of vinegar and garlic is whole grain mustard, it makes all the difference. Avocado and mustard are heaven!
