Bread
- 1 slice whole grain bread
Seasonings and Oil
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
- Olive oil for cooking (about 1 teaspoon)
Instructions
- Heat the pan: Warm a small amount of olive oil in a pan over medium heat to prepare for cooking the eggs without sticking.
- Whisk the eggs: Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them thoroughly until the whites and yolks are fully combined.
- Cook the eggs: Pour the whisked eggs into the heated pan and cook gently, stirring often to scramble until softly set and slightly creamy.
- Toast the bread: Toast the slice of whole grain bread until golden and crispy, either in a toaster or on a pan.
- Mash the avocado: In a small bowl, mash the avocado with a fork and season it with salt and pepper to enhance flavor.
- Assemble the toast: Spread the seasoned mashed avocado evenly on the toasted bread slice.
- Add the eggs: Top the avocado toast with the freshly scrambled eggs, then serve immediately while warm.
Notes
- Use ripe avocado for easier mashing and better flavor.
- Adjust seasoning to preference, adding chili flakes or lemon juice to the avocado for extra zest if desired.
- To increase protein, consider adding a sprinkle of nutritional yeast or a side of turkey bacon.
- Whole grain bread provides fiber and nutrients; gluten-free bread can be used if needed.
