Ingredients
- 2 whole-grain bread slices or whole-wheat, small pieces
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice white vinegar or apple cider vinegar for substitute
- 1 egg large or extra large
- 1/2 avocado ripe
- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher or sea salt divided
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup salad greens of choice or baby spinach (optional)
Instructions
- Toast bread.
- Poach eggs by bringing 2 inches of water with 1/4 teaspoon salt and lemon juice or vinegar to a simmer over high heat. Do not allow water to boil. If it begins boiling, reduce heat.
- Crack the egg into a small bowl or mug and slide the egg into the water. Simmer for 3 to 4 minutes until egg white is solid, but the yolk is still liquid. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on paper towel/napkin to absorb any excess water. Place on toast.
- Meanwhile, smash avocado with olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and black pepper. Use a potato masher or pulse in a food processor or blender until pureed but slightly chunky. Spread onto one side of toast, top with salad greens or spinach if using, and place over egg toast. Enjoy!
