This avocado and egg toast is flavorful and filling, offering a delightful blend of creamy and crunchy textures that make every bite a pleasure. The wholesome ingredients harmonize perfectly, making it a favorite for breakfast or brunch.

Ingredients

  • 4 slices whole-grain bread

  • 2 ripe avocados

  • 4 boiled eggs, peeled and sliced

  • Salt to taste

  • Black pepper to taste

  • Red pepper flakes (optional)

  • Fresh lemon juice (optional)

  • Chopped fresh herbs for garnish (optional)

Directions

  • Toast the Bread: Begin by toasting the slices of whole-grain bread until golden brown and crispy.
  • Prepare the Avocado: In a bowl, mash the ripe avocados with salt, black pepper, and a splash of lemon juice to enhance the flavor and prevent browning.
  • Boil the Eggs: Boil the eggs to your desired doneness. For hard-boiled eggs, cook for about 9-12 minutes, then cool in ice water before peeling.
  • Assemble: When ready to eat, spread a generous layer of mashed avocado on each slice of toast. Top with sliced boiled eggs, a sprinkle of red pepper flakes, and fresh herbs if desired.
  • Store: If meal prepping, store the mashed avocado, boiled eggs, and toasted bread separately in airtight containers in the fridge. Assemble fresh each morning to enjoy the best taste and texture.

Notes

    Key Prep Tips

    1. Perfect Avocado: Use ripe but firm avocados for the creamiest texture and easiest spreading. A ripe avocado will yield slightly when pressed gently.
    2. Boiled Egg Doneness: Customize the egg doneness based on preference—soft-boiled for a runny yolk or hard-boiled for a firmer texture.
    3. Bread Choice: Choose whole-grain or sourdough bread for added texture and nutrients.
    4. Prevent Browning: Mix a small amount of lemon juice into the mashed avocado to keep it fresh and vibrant for meal prep.
    5. Separate Storage: If preparing for meal prep, store avocado mash, eggs, and bread separately to ensure freshness and avoid sogginess.

    Suggested Variations

    1. Protein Boost: Add smoked salmon, turkey slices, or crispy bacon for an extra dose of protein.
    2. Flavor Enhancements: Sprinkle red pepper flakes, chili oil, or a dash of paprika for a spicy kick.
    3. Vegetarian Add-Ons: Include sliced cherry tomatoes, spinach, or arugula for more veggies.
    4. Cheesy Upgrade: Add a sprinkle of feta cheese or shredded Parmesan for a rich, savory flavor.
    5. Alternative Spreads: Swap avocado for hummus or cream cheese for a different base.

    Serving Suggestions

    1. Breakfast Bowl: Serve the avocado and egg toast alongside a bowl of fresh fruit or Greek yogurt for a complete breakfast.
    2. Snack Option: Cut the toast into bite-sized pieces or strips for a shareable snack or appetizer.
    3. Pair with Coffee: Pair the toast with a strong cup of black coffee or a frothy latte for a classic morning pairing.
    4. Brunch Spread: Include the avocado and egg toast as part of a larger brunch spread with pastries, smoothies, and fresh juices.
    5. Garnish: Finish with fresh herbs like parsley, cilantro, or dill for a pop of color and flavor.
