Steps

1

Squeeze the lime and set the juice aside.
2

Cut the avocado lengthwise, twist to open, and remove the pit. Scoop out the flesh with a spoon. Cut it into pieces and place them in a tall cup for an immersion blender. Add the lime juice right away to keep the avocado from browning and to maintain its bright green color. Blend until smooth. Note: If you prefer, you can mash the avocado with a fork instead of blending.
3

Toast the bread. Meanwhile, add the olive oil, salt, pepper, and torn mint leaves to the avocado mixture. Mix well.
4

Wash, trim, and slice the radishes.
5

Assemble the bruschetta: spread the avocado mixture on the toasted bread, top with radish slices, and garnish with mint leaves and a grind of pepper (optional). (I also added chia seeds!)
