Avocado and egg toast is a simple yet delicious meal that is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a quick snack. It combines the richness of avocados with the protein-packed goodness of eggs, all served on hearty multi-grain bread. This recipe is not only tasty but also nutritious, offering a good balance of healthy fats, protein, and complex carbohydrates.
Instructions:
- Begin by halving the avocado. Remove the pit and use a spoon to scoop out the flesh from one half. Set aside in a small bowl.
- Toast the 2 slices of multi-grain bread to your desired level of crispiness.
- There are a couple of options for cooking the eggs: frying or poaching. For this recipe, we will fry them.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the skillet with a drizzle of olive oil or a small pat of butter.
- Crack the eggs into the skillet, being careful not to break the yolks. Cook to your preference – whether sunny-side up, over-easy, or over medium. For sunny-side up, cook until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny, about 2-3 minutes. For over-easy, flip the eggs gently and cook for an additional minute.
- While the eggs are cooking, mash the avocado in the bowl using a fork. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and if desired, a squeeze of lemon juice for added freshness.
- Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted slices of multi-grain bread.
- Once the eggs are cooked to your liking, place one egg on top of each avocado-covered toast slice.
- Optionally, you can garnish with any additional toppings such as a sprinkle of red pepper flakes, chopped fresh herbs (like cilantro or parsley), or a drizzle of hot sauce.
- Serve immediately while the toast is still warm.
Tips:
- Use ripe avocados for a creamier texture and better flavor.
- Cook the eggs to your preference, whether that's scrambled, poached, or fried.
- Toast the bread to your desired level of crispiness to add an extra layer of texture to your meal.
- Season the avocado with a pinch of salt and a squeeze of lemon juice to enhance its flavor.
- Top with optional ingredients like cherry tomatoes, spinach, or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for added taste and nutrition.
