Ingredients

  • 2 slices of whole grain bread
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • Red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Fresh herbs for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Toast the whole grain bread slices in a toaster or skillet until golden brown.

  2. 2

    While the bread is toasting, bring a small pot of water to a gentle simmer.

  3. 3

    Crack the eggs into separate small bowls or ramekins for easy transfer.

  4. 4

    Once the water is simmering, gently slide each egg into the water. Cook for about 3-4 minutes for runny yolks or longer for firmer yolks.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Add lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mash with a fork until smooth.

  6. 6

    Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted bread.

  7. 7

    Carefully remove the poached eggs from the water with a slotted spoon and place one on top of each avocado toast.

  8. 8

    Season with additional salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if desired. Garnish with fresh herbs if using.
