What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

Ingredients

Makes 1 | Serves 1

Avocado Toast Ingredients

2 pieces multigrain bread or 1 multi-grain English Muffin, split in half
½ cup Sun Dried Tomato Hummus
4 large slices of tomato
2 tablespoons red onions, diced
1 cup arugula greens
¼ medium avocado, sliced
2 tablespoons Creamy Lemon Tahini Sauce (recipe below)

Sun Dried Tomato Hummus Ingredients

Makes ~2 ½ cup | Portion size ½ cup | Servings: 6

1 16-ounce can garbanzo beans with liquid
¼ cups sesame seeds
10 olives, fresh ripened
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 large garlic cloves
¼ teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon sea salt
¼ cup sun dried tomatoes, chopped

Creamy Lemon Tahini Sauce

Makes ~1 cup | Portion size: 2 tablespoons | Servings: 8

¼ cup tahini or ½ cup sesame seeds
¼ cup fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon miso (may replace with ½ teaspoon of salt)
2 teaspoons honey, adjust to taste
1 clove garlic, chopped, adjust to taste
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
¼ cup water, adjust as needed
salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Prepare the Sun Dried Tomato Hummus

In a blender bowl, place beans with liquid, sesame seeds, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, and salt. Process until mixture is completely smooth, Add additional 1 to 2 tablespoons of water if a thinner consistency is desired.

Add the sun dried tomatoes to the blended hummus and process. Chill until ready to serve.

Prepare the Creamy Tahini Sauce

If using tahini, add all dressing ingredients to a blender except for the olive oil, water, and salt/pepper.

If using sesame seeds to replace tahini, place sesame seeds in the blender with 2 tablespoons of water and blend until sesame seeds are like a tahini seed butter consistency. Add the lemon juice, miso or salt, honey, and garlic clove.

Blend ingredients for several seconds or until smooth.

With the blender on medium speed, slowly add the olive oil to emulsify. Thin out the dressing with water as needed to obtain desired consistency and yield 1 cup of dressing.

Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Chill until ready to serve.

Assemble the Toast

Toast the bread or English muffin until lightly golden.

Slice the tomato and onions and prepare the greens.

Assemble the Avocado Toast:

a. Spread 4 tablespoons Sun Dried Tomato Hummus on each piece of toasted bread for a total of ½ cup.

b. Top with tomato, onions, greens, and sliced avocado.

c. Drizzle with Creamy Tahini Dressing and serve.

Tips

If you’d like to replace the ½ cup of Sun Dried Tomato Hummus with ½ cup of store-bought hummus of any flavor, that can work. Just keep in mind that store-bought versions of hummus can be loaded with processed oils, so check the ingredient list before purchasing.

Try variations of this toast with your favorite dark green leafy vegetables or sprouted greens like baby spinach leaves, or enjoy with your favorite sprouts like alfalfa sprouts, broccoli sprouts, or sunflower sprouts. When you use arugula, you are getting a dark leafy cruciferous vegetable with extra health benefits.

To increase your veggie intake, try the Hummus Avocado Toast with other vegetables like diced sweet red peppers or cucumbers.

The Creamy Tahini Dressing can be replaced with a simple dressing of fresh-squeezed lemon and seasoned with salt and pepper.

To make a whole meal, serve two halves of Hummus Avocado Toast with one apple or one cup of berries.

The hummus and dressing will stay fresh in the fridge for 5 days.
