I have dreams of opening up a little sandwich stand that would be called “Stuff On Toast.” I feel like I’ve mentioned this before. Oh and I’d serve pie too because after you eat something on toast you might want a piece of pie. You might not, actually, but I just want to be prepared in case you do. And maybe coffee. So pie, toast and cappuccinos. It would be our three life necessities under the same small, shack-like roof.
This rendition of Avocado Toast is a bit different. Having white miso in my fridge has become a staple. I love it because in the colder months I can throw it in a pot with hot water, along with seasonal vegetables and make a quick miso soup. I’m obsessed. In the warmer months it’s awesome to have on hand for making quick miso dressing. A little ginger and sesame oil and rice vinegar are added and that’s kind of it. .
The sushi-grade ahi tuna and avocado are cubed up and tossed with the dressing. And then it’s all put on your bread of choice. Pictured here is a sour dough boule which basically goes with everything.
I want to be one of those weirdo people that has a 20-year old starter of sour dough in their fridge. It’ll happen.
I ate this right after I took photos of it and it kind of was the perfect thing to eat for breakfast. Kinda weird eating ahi tuna for breakfast but it totally worked. Eat it at 1pm, if I’m totally weirding you out right now.

Hi Adrianna!! I find your recipes quite easy and original, so I really like reading your posts. 🙂 It’s the first time that I am writing you a comment, though.
And this is because I was searching for recipes with white miso and ended up finding this dressing, which I made and actually looooved. Better late than never! 😉
It’s a familiar flavor (I had tasted it already in some Asian-inspired cuisine restaurants), so could not believe myself when [thanks to you!], I did manage to make it on my own!! 🙂 🙂
I’ve tweaked the recipe a bit, to cope with what I had in the pantry, by swapping sesame oil with toasted sesame oil (half the portion) and adding some water, to break the oil’s punch.
It’s definitely a winner, so thank you, thank you, thank you!! 🙂
How many servings does this recipe yield?
I cannot wait to try this recipe … it combines my two favourite things, sushi and bread, all in one 😛 yum. Thanks for being my absolute favourite food blog 🙂
Hey! Thanks for being super nice! xo
If you know what’s good for you, START THAT SANDWICH STAND! While your writing about it is done quite carefully, it still drips with enthusiasm. Go for it!
Oh my, this looks amazing! *must make*
Please please please open up a little sandwich shop! I would eat up all those delicious sandwiches 🙂
YES. YES. YES.
Give me 5 months and I’m IN.
You’ve mentioned the Stuff on Toast thing and I’ll so wanna be your customer. 🙂 This is like sashimi toast. Love!
Ooo, this sounds delish. I’m just now realizing how much I like avocado.
This looks amazing!
How many toast slices does this recipe make? Enough for two people? I’m wondering how much tuna to buy!
This serves one person. Sorry I forgot to add the yield. Adding it now!
This looks delish! I’m a huge fan of avocado on toast with a dash of garlic sea salt. The ahi tuna addition looks so good. Definitely adding this to my list of recipes to try!
This sounds so amazing–it’s like a sushi salad sandwich! I definitely need to go find some sushi-grade fish ASAP. 🙂
