Notes
Recipe Notes & Tips
- Bread is Key: Using bread labeled “low-sodium” helps keep sodium lower without sacrificing texture.
- Finding Feta: Look for “low-sodium” feta cheese in the specialty cheese section of your supermarket. It delivers that classic tangy flavor with significantly less salt.
- Perfect Avocados: For the best creamy texture, choose avocados that yield to gentle pressure but are not mushy.
- Serving Suggestion: For a more substantial meal, serve a toast alongside a scrambled egg white or a small bowl of fresh berries.
