Avocado Tartine
A tasty way to enjoy avocado on bread.
Tartine is a French word meaning open sandwich and it also suggests bread with rich or elaborate toppings. Such a great description for this light meal based on a lunch I eat at Pain Quotidian. It was a cool November day and my friend and I started with a warm carrot soup followed with thinly sliced rye bread topped with this texture and flavour. Make your own tasty combo.
