Healthy Avocado & Egg Toast

Ingredients

• 4 slices of whole grain bread
• 2 ripe avocados, halved and pitted
• 4 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled (optional)
• Fresh herbs for garnish (such as parsley or cilantro)
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika

Instructions

1. 1

   Toast the Bread: Begin by toasting the whole grain bread slices in a toaster or under a broiler until golden brown and crispy. This will provide a sturdy base for your toppings. Set the toasted bread aside while you prepare the avocado and eggs.

2. 2

   Prepare the Avocado: In a mixing bowl, scoop the flesh of the ripe avocados and mash them with a fork until smooth. Add the fresh lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste. This mixture will bring out the creamy flavor and add a zesty kick.

3. 3

   Cook the Eggs: In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook them to your liking—sunny side up, over-easy, or scrambled. Season with salt and pepper as they cook for added flavor.

4. 4

   Assemble the Toast: Spread a generous portion of the mashed avocado onto each slice of toasted bread. Top each slice with a cooked egg, making sure to place it gently so it doesn’t break. If desired, sprinkle red pepper flakes over the top for a bit of heat.

5. 5

   Add Toppings: Next, add the halved cherry tomatoes and crumbled feta cheese on top of each toast. The freshness of the tomatoes and the creaminess of the feta will enhance the overall flavor. Garnish with fresh herbs for an extra touch.

6. 6

   Serve Immediately: Serve your Healthy Avocado & Egg Toast warm, and enjoy it as a hearty breakfast, brunch, or even a light lunch. The combination of flavors and textures will surely delight your taste buds.
