Add Feta Cheese: Crumble feta cheese into the mashed avocado mixture while mixing gently to create a creamy spread without over-mixing.

Top with Fresh Ingredients: Spread your creamy avocado-feta mixture onto each piece of toasted bread generously. Layer sliced tomatoes and sprinkle dried cranberries on top.

Drizzle Olive Oil & Serve: Finish off by drizzling high-quality extra virgin olive oil over your masterpiece. Enjoy immediately while everything is fresh and vibrant!

With these steps complete, each bite offers an explosion of flavors that’ll make you wonder why you haven’t tried this sooner!
