Avocado Crostini Three Ways!

For even more flavor, rub from garlic on your crostini before topping with the mashed avocado. For the zucchini, if you want to make the ribbons, simply use a vegetable peeler and peel the zucchini to make the ribbons. Roll them up and place on top of the crostini, into the mashed avocado. You can even use some of the avocado to "seal" the ribbons.
