It covers all you could want in a perfect breakfast and hits three of the four major food groups. Specifically, the ones you need to keep you well-fed, and rolling into the afternoon, without ever getting hangry! #itsathing

The first time I had avocado fry bread was this summer. My mom and I were busy running a few errands and decided to stop, because we were both getting hungry, and not the light hungry, either. It was the I’m-no-longer-concentrating-properly hungry, belly-button-hitting-my-backbone hungry, patience-wavering hungry. We dropped everything and headed to the newest restaurant in our home town and I zeroed in on the fry bread avocado toast that was on the menu.

It was goooood! It totally hit the spot, but I wanted more. I had been thinking about this toast for a while when my friend Edith sent me a text all about how she’d just flattened out Rhodes dinner rolls (the dough) and fried them and how they were super easy and delicious! So, I gave those a try and holy yum, they don’t disappoint, you can check out the recipe for those right here. Armed with Edith’s trick, I decided to tackle my own version of a fry bread avocado toast.

This open faced sandwich is so delicious, it’s crazy. Ham shaved so thin you can see through it. Corn kernels that pop in your mouth. Pickled Red Onions that give it the acidity and crunch a breakfast deserves. Nestle all this on a bed of mashed avocado with a healthy squeeze of lime, and layer it on hot fry bread. Now, that is a breakfast I will wake up for every time.

How to Make Loaded Open Faced Avocado Fry Bread

Start by making the fry bread. Let the frozen Rhodes dinner rolls thaw, and rise until doubled in size. Once they’ve doubled in size, stretch them out into thin circles. Then, fry for a few seconds on each side, until they’re bubbled up and golden brown. Drain on a paper towel, sprinkle with salt.

Mash the avocado. I always add lots of lime and a bit of salt and pepper anytime I mash avocados for toast. Or you can go for the gusto and make this Kicked Up Avocado Toast. Smear half the mixture on each fry bread. Then top with ham, corn kernels, pickled onions, sprinkle with cilantro and a bit more salt. Now, if you want to really make this breakfast shine, you can always add a sunny side up egg and some feta cheese.

As always, you can make this breakfast your own by adding and subtracting whatever you like best on your breakfast sandwiches. I personally think bacon, is always a good idea, and some diced tomatoes would be another delicious add-in. Really, however, you choose to put this sandwich together, I will guarantee the fry bread with the mashed avocado is the perfect starter to load up with amazing ingredients!
