Everything Avocado & Tomato Salad

What Does “Everything” Mean, Anyway?

If you’ve never had a warm Everything bagel with all of its messy toppings, do yourself a favor and head to your local bagel shop. While the origins of the Everything bagel is a bit disputed among bagel shops, this flavor features a fantastically-crazy mix of everything you could sprinkle on a bagel. 

The story goes that a worker at a bagel shop was collecting the sprinkled crumbs from the bottom of the toaster and thought it should all be mixed together as a topping! This can include anything from caraway seeds, garlic flakes, onion flakes, poppy seeds, sesame seeds or those big chunks of salt that crunch when you bite into them.

Our Everything mix gets sprinkled on the Everything chopped salad, and contains the following little morsels: sesame seeds, garlic, onion, salt, black sesame seeds, and poppy seeds. Sprinkle away, Enjoy the mix of flavors and don’t forget to check your teeth afterward. 

Avocados to the rescue: Why are they good for you?

With their buttery texture and a mild, almost nutty flavor, avocados are the modern cook’s secret weapon–you can put them in (or on) tons of foods to elevate your game. But why are they touted as a health food?

First, avocados are rich in vitamins, such as Vitamins E, K, C, riboflavin, iron, and beta-carotene. With their heart-friendly fatty acids and monounsaturated fats, they’re the Keto dieter’s best friend. While they’re not considered low-calorie foods, they pack in the fiber. If you were to consume an entire avocado over the course of a day, you would get 54% of your daily fiber intake. We don’t recommend sitting down with two halves of an avocado on a plate necessarily, but it’s easy to use avocado slices on sandwiches, salads like this one, or as a topping for warm soups or spicy stews that could use a bit of coolness.
