# Tips from the pros:

01 -
  • It looks fancy enough to photograph but takes less time than your usual morning scroll.
  • That everything bagel seasoning hits different on creamy avocado—it's the salty-savory moment your taste buds didn't know they needed.
  • You finally have a reason to use that quirky kitchen gadget collecting dust in your drawer.
02 -
  • The moment avocado hits the warm toast is when everything becomes time-sensitive, so have all your toppings prepped and within arm's reach before you start.
  • If you can't find a shamrock cutter, a small round cookie cutter works just as well—the shape matters less than the care you take in cutting it, which signals to whoever's eating that you made something with intention.
03 -
  • If you're cutting shamrocks by hand without a cutter, chill the avocado knife in ice water for five minutes first—a cold, sharp blade cuts through cleanly without crushing the delicate flesh.
  • Everything bagel seasoning tastes best when freshly opened, so if yours has been sitting in the pantry for months, that's the real time to replace it and taste the difference it makes.
