Ingredients (Serves 1)
- 1 slice of whole-grain bread (or your favorite bread)
- 1/2 ripe avocado
- 1 egg
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- Optional toppings: red pepper flakes, chili flakes, sesame seeds, or a drizzle of hot sauce or olive oil
Instructions
- Toast the Bread: Toast the slice of bread to your desired level of crispiness.
- Prepare the Avocado: While the bread is toasting, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a small bowl. Mash it with a fork until smooth or leave it slightly chunky, depending on your preference.
- Cook the Egg:
- For a fried egg: Heat a small non-stick pan over medium heat. Crack the egg into the pan and cook until the white is set and the yolk is still runny (or cook longer if you prefer a firmer yolk).
- For a scrambled egg: Whisk the egg in a bowl, pour it into the pan, and stir gently until cooked through.
- Assemble the Toast: Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted bread. Place the cooked egg on top.
- Season and Serve: Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and any optional toppings like red pepper flakes, chili flakes, or a drizzle of hot sauce or olive oil.
