Preparation

Step 1

1. First, toast the bread.

2. While the bread is toasting, use a peeler to shave the cucumber into thin strips. Start on one side and shave until you’re about 1/3 of the way through, then flip and shave from the other side (discarding or snacking on the seedy center).

3. Place the shaved cucumber in a bowl with the meyer lemon zest, torn mint leaves, crumbled feta (if using), and season with salt, pepper, lemon juice, and olive oil to taste.

4. Sliced the avocado and arrange it over the toast, then season with a pinch of salt.

5. Top the toast with the shaved cucumber mixture and garnish with a generous pinch of chili.
