Elevated avocado toast, sushi in a salad, & cheesecake meets cookies.

👋 Happy Friday,

This week’s viral lineup is doing a lot.

The best toast ever. Cucumber salad that thinks it’s sushi. Creamy cheesecake in a cookie.

I made all three. They’re trending for a reason.

Here’s what’s taking over feeds 👇

1. Chili Crisp Avocado Toast

Avocado toast walked so chili crisp could run.

Creamy smashed avocado and cottage cheese on crispy bread, with a fried egg cooked in chili crisp.

It’s simple.
It’s bold.
It tastes like brunch leveled up.

2. California Roll Cucumber Salad

This one blew up on TikTok from the cucumber guy, Logan Moffit.

Thin-sliced cucumbers tossed with imitation crab, avocado, sesame, and a creamy sushi-style dressing.

It’s crunchy, fresh, and tastes like a deconstructed California roll, minus the rolling stress.

3. Strawberry Cheesecake Cookies

These are chaotic in the best way. Homemade strawberry jam and creamy cheesecake, baked into soft and chewy cookies.

They look bakery-level. They taste even better. These don’t last long.

Food Fact of The Day

Strawberries aren’t technically berries, but bananas are. Botanically speaking, strawberries are “aggregate fruits” because their seeds are on the outside.

Science is weird. Cookies are not.
