Open-Faced Avocado Sandwich

It's a rare occasion to find perfectly ripe avocados at my local grocery store, but I hit the jackpot yesterday.  As I pondered the destiny of my delightful green fruit, I stumbled upon recipe for an avocado sandwich that I just *had* to try. 

This sandwich was perfect for an avocado fiend like me- simple and delicious.  Next time, I'm going to save the calories and omit the olive oil.  (It didn't add anything extra to the flavor or texture.)

And, just a disclaimer, this meal is not husband-approved.  He'd probably look at me like I had three heads if I plopped a plate of avocado-on-toast in front of him.  (He doesn't know what he's missing out on, does he?)
