Simple Shrimp and Avocado Toast

Avocado toast lovers, trust us: You haven’t lived until you’ve tasted seafood avocado toast! Whole-grain bread and cumin-laced avocado provide the creamy-crunchy foundation you know and love. But it’s the quick-cooking shrimp, sautéed with lime and just the right amount of spice, that makes an amazing thing even better!

  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings 1x

Ingredients

  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper, divided
  • ½ lime, juiced, divided
  • ½ pound medium shrimp, deveined
  • ½ large avocado
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • 2 slices 100% whole grain or whole grain gluten-free bread
