Customize it with a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a kick, and serve it as a hearty weekday meal or an impressive weekend brunch centerpiece.
Toast the slices of sourdough bread until golden brown and set aside.
Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Scoop the flesh into a bowl and mash it with a fork until creamy. Stir in the lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Set aside.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and set them aside for topping.
In a medium-sized skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the baby spinach and sauté for 1-2 minutes until wilted. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt, then remove from heat and set aside.
Wipe the skillet clean, then add the butter and melt it over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook to your desired doneness (sunny-side-up is recommended). Sprinkle the eggs with the remaining salt and black pepper while cooking.
Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted slices of sourdough bread.
Top each slice with the sautéed spinach, a fried egg, and halved cherry tomatoes. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes for a little kick, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your open-faced breakfast sandwich!
