Smoked Gouda Avocado Breakfast Bruschetta

It’s one of those mornings when I can’t get my daughter out of bed. And she’s feeling dizzy this morning, so dizzy she doesn’t want to go to school. I hate it when I have to tell her to go to school when she’s feeling this way. But she’s not sick, and she’s missed too many days of school already.

The cat is whining incessantly and won’t leave me alone and I don’t know what he wants. He has food, he has water, he has been fed, but he won’t quit swirling around me and meowing.

Anybody want a fat, fuzzy, affectionate, slightly annoying cat? He’s really cute … see?

Naw, I’m just kidding. I wouldn’t trade him for the world. He’s just driving me crazy this morning, and I know what he wants. He wants me to drop everything and just hold him and pet him and rub his belly. He loves it when you rub his fat, furry belly.

I think I need some toast. A really good toast. Something like this … not that my dang cat is going to give me time to cook this morning. I’ll probably end up eating cereal. Except we’re out of milk. Yeah, it’s one of THOSE kind of mornings.

Smoked Gouda Avocado Breakfast Bruschetta

• French bread, sliced (I used this recipe)
• Smoked Gouda cheese, sliced thin
• Thinly sliced red onion
• Slices of tomato
• Scrambled egg
• Slices of ripe avocado
• Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish

Directions:

1. Toast the bread lightly, then arrange the cheese on it. Top with slices of onion and tomato.
2. Broil or bake at 350 until the cheese is melted.
3. Top with egg, avocado and cilantro and enjoy. It’s a little messy to eat, but it tastes SO delicious.
