Ingredients

• 1 ripe avocado
• 2 eggs
• 2 bread slices (whole grain or sourdough recommended)
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
• 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro or parsley (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Begin by toasting the bread slices to your desired crispiness using a toaster or stovetop grill. Set aside once done.

Step 2

While the bread is toasting, cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Use a spoon to scoop the flesh into a bowl.

Step 3

Add the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the avocado. Mash it with a fork until creamy yet slightly chunky.

Step 4

In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan and cook to your preferred doneness, either sunny-side up or over-easy. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Step 5

Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted bread slices.

Step 6

Place the cooked eggs on top of the avocado spread on each toast slice.

Step 7

Sprinkle the red pepper flakes, if using, and garnish with chopped cilantro or parsley.

Step 8

Serve immediately for a fresh and flavorful meal.
