How To Make Bruschetta Avocado Toast With Added Detox Benefits
My mom makes bruschetta for our Christmas Eve party every year, and I can't get enough of the stuff. Tomatoes, onion, olive oil, and feta on toast—is there a better combo? So, imagine my surprise when I curated an avocado toast that not only reminds me of my mom's delicious holiday appetizer but also delivers a slew of detox benefits—all before 10 in the morning!
The secret ingredient? mbg's very own organic veggies+. I know, I know, you're probably thinking "Come on, does this avocado toast really taste better with a veggie powder?"

Method
- Spread avocado on your sourdough toast.
- Sprinkle up to 1 tablespoon of organic veggies+ powder on your toast.
- Add diced tomatoes, sweet onion, and feta cheese. If you're dairy free (like me), I recommend Violife's 100% vegan Just Like Feta!
- Sprinkle flaky salt and black pepper.
Note: This toast is also delicious with an EVOO-fried egg on top! If you'd like the added protein, fry your egg while assembling your avocado toast and place it on top after sprinkling salt and pepper.

Detoxification benefits.
Our bodies have a natural detoxification system that's quite effective at filtering and removing unwanted compounds. That said, we're dealing with an influx of modern environmental toxins today, and sometimes our detox pathways need a little extra help.
Luckily, there are foods we can add to our diet that help support the body's innate detoxification system—including the ingredients featured on this avo toast!
Avocados, tomatoes, and onions are packed with antioxidants that help remove unwanted toxins, and mbg's organic veggies+ includes an array of organic plants that support detox pathways—such as broccoli, beetroot, kale, turmeric, flaxseed fiber, and sea vegetables (i.e., spirulina, chlorella, and kelp).*
Packed with a USDA-certified organic blend of 31 fruits, vegetables, herbal botanicals, digestive enzymes, prebiotic fibers, and probiotics, this comprehensive powder is just the boost you need in the morning to promote a healthy gut microbiome, aid digestion, and bolster your detoxification system.*
