Description
A wholesome and satisfying breakfast—creamy mashed avocado, crisp toasted bread, and a perfectly cooked egg combine to make a quick, healthy start to the day.
Ingredients
- 2 slices brown bread (or gluten‑free if needed)
- 2 eggs
- 1 avocado
- Juice of lemon (to taste)
- Sea salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Oil (for cooking eggs)
Instructions
- Toast the bread until it’s as crisp or lightly browned as you prefer.
- Heat a little oil in a pan over medium heat, and fry the eggs to your desired doneness (sunny‑side up, over easy, etc.).
- Meanwhile, scoop the avocado into a bowl, mash it with lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth (or leave slightly chunky if you like texture).
- Spread the mashed avocado over the warm toast.
- Place the fried egg(s) on top.
- Season with additional salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use hearty bread like sourdough or multigrain; they hold up better under the toppings.
- Add toppings like fresh tomato slices, red pepper flakes, herbs (cilantro, parsley), or a drizzle of hot sauce for variation.
- For a runnier yolk, cook the egg gently and avoid overcooking.
- If using avocado ahead of time, squeeze lemon or lime over the flesh and cover with plastic wrap touching the surface to reduce browning.
- To make it vegan‑friendly: use a plant‑based egg substitute.
