Ingredients
Scale
2 slices of whole grain bread
1 ripe avocado
2 large eggs
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
Red pepper flakes (optional)
Lemon juice (optional)
Instructions
Toast the slices of whole grain bread until golden brown.
While the bread is toasting, bring a small pot of water to a gentle simmer.
Crack the eggs into the simmering water and poach for about 3-4 minutes, or until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny.
Meanwhile, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it with a fork and add salt, pepper, and lemon juice if desired.
Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted bread.
Once the eggs are done, carefully remove them from the water and place one on top of each slice of avocado toast.
Sprinkle with additional salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
For a vegan option, replace the eggs with sliced tomatoes or radishes.
Feel free to add toppings like feta cheese, smoked salmon, or fresh herbs for extra flavor.
Use gluten-free bread if you are following a gluten-free diet.
