Description

Spooky Franken-Mash Avocado Toasts are a fun and healthy twist on traditional avocado toast, perfect for Halloween or any spooky occasion. Featuring creamy mashed avocado, fresh fruits, nuts, and vibrant vegetables artistically arranged to resemble Frankenstein’s face and neck, this easy recipe combines nutrition with playful presentation to delight kids and adults alike.


Ingredients

Scale

Bread and Spread

  • 4 slices bread
  • 1 large or 2 small DOLE avocados, mashed
  • 1/2 lemon (juice)

Decorations

  • 4 Brazil nuts, cut in half
  • 1/2 DOLE banana, sliced
  • DOLE raisins as needed
  • DOLE organic spinach as needed
  • DOLE carrots as needed, sliced

Instructions

  1. Prep the Bread: Remove crusts from the bread slices to create neat rectangles that will serve as the base for your Franken-Mash toasts.
  2. Mash the Avocado: In a bowl, mash the avocado thoroughly with about 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice to add flavor and prevent browning.
  3. Toast the Bread: Lightly toast the crustless bread slices until golden and slightly crisp to hold the avocado spread well.
  4. Spread and Texture: Generously slather the mashed avocado onto the toasted bread. Use a fork to create creative streaks and texture to mimic Frankenstein’s rugged skin.
  5. Create Frankenstein’s Features: Place the halved Brazil nuts on the upper sides of the toast acting as bolts, arrange raisins along the top edge to simulate hair, then slice the banana into shapes for eyes and mouth. Use raisins for eyeballs and optional teeth details.
  6. Add the Neck and Body: Place sliced carrots below the toast to resemble a neck. Arrange fresh spinach leaves on the plate beneath to create a body, optionally positioning two toasts to appear as a “two-headed” Frankenstein for a fun presentation.
