    Avocado Hamil-toast


    Today I am sharing a few things with you guys. First off, this yummy recipe for avocado toast, Avocado Hamil-toast – avocado toast with warm skillet plantains on top, with lime and a hint of garlic. SO good! This toast is inspired by one of my favorite things right now, Hamilton the musical, created by the genius Lin-Manuel Miranda. (I’ll explain the toast-flavor connection a few paragraphs down!)

    The Tony Awards are this Sunday June 12th. I will be “toasting” Hamilton and Lin-Manuel with some Avocado Hamil-toast. Hamilton has 16 Tony Award nominations.

    So in the spirit of the toast, I mean this post, the second thing I am sharing, a few of my pics from when I visited NYC and saw Hamilton a few weeks ago — one of the most inspiring and beautiful theater / life experiences ever! Alexander and avocados…

    This toast is super satisfying and flavorful. Buttery avocados top warm toast and then on top, sticky-sweet warm skillet plantains with lime and garlic..

    I hope Lin-Manuel would approve..

    Want to read my Hamilton travel story?

    So why is this plantain-topped dish called Alexander Hamil-toast?? Avocado Hamil-toast with plantains is inspired by Lin-Manuel’s Puerto Rican heritage. Miranda’s parents are Puerto Rican. And this all worked out since I just happen to have a pile of plantains in my fruit bowl because I loooooove them.

    Fellow Hamilton fan? Get loads of my Hamilton stage door pics at the bottom!
