Can't Find Cotija Cheese: If you cannot find Cotija cheese, you could substitute Feta cheese or even a vegan feta substitute if necessary. Pro-tip: You can roast or warm a small peeled clove of garlic, then rub the garlic clove onto the face of the toast before spreading your avocado mixture. It will add an extra depth of flavor to your toast.
