Move over, avocado toast! These bowls are great for a cookout, picnics, or game day. Balsamic vinegar and goat cheese is one of my favorite combinations for salads. It’s just too tasty!

Balsamic Avocado Bowls

For this recipe, I used a little liquid smoke to add some extra flavor to the cheese. If you don’t have the smoke, you can always skip it then add the cheese without heating it first. If you like things spicy, then you can make this recipe hotter with Sriracha or chili flakes.

These are also easy to make with minimal prep time. However, if making for later, make sure you cover them with plastic wrap to ensure the avocado doesn’t become brown.
