Avocado Toast with Micro Arugula, Strawberries, Goat Cheese, and Balsamic Vinegar

This sweet and savoury avocado toast is a snap to put together. Even young children can help to make this. The avocado gets a hit of spice with the addition of some chili flakes and then is topped with balsamic-marinated strawberries and peppery microgreens for the perfect combination of savoury and sweet.
