Avocado Toast With Bacon and Hemp Hearts

Avocado toast can be quite pricey at a cafe but we can make our own at home with Chef Nick. All we used to top the toast here is avocado, Hemp Hearts, and bacon. Hemp Hearts hemp seeds have a great nutty flavor that can provide essential nutritional value to your diet. He also shows us his techniques for repurposing the bacon grease for the toast.
