- Don’t stuff the avocado spread too much on the bread slice otherwise it will come out while toasting.
- You can add any grated vegetables of your choice to make this avocado sandwich.
- Always Choose whole wheat bread or multi grain bread for a healthy version.

- Always check with your pediatrician before introducing any new food.
