Gather Your Ingredients
Prep Time: 5 minutes | Cook Time: 5 minutes | Servings: 2
- 2 ripe avocados
- 4 hard-boiled eggs
- 4 slices of your favorite bread (sourdough works great!)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Red pepper flakes (optional)
- Fresh herbs for garnish (optional)
Let’s Get Cooking
-
Start by toasting your bread slices until they are golden brown and crispy.
-
While the bread is toasting, peel the hard-boiled eggs and grate them using a box grater or a food processor.
-
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it with a fork until creamy, then season with salt and pepper.
-
Spread a generous layer of the mashed avocado on each slice of toast.
-
Top the avocado with the grated egg, sprinkling it evenly over the toast.
-
Finish with a sprinkle of red pepper flakes and fresh herbs if desired.
My Pro Tips
-
For an extra kick, try adding a squeeze of lemon juice to the avocado before spreading it on the toast.
-
If you’re feeling adventurous, swap out the hard-boiled eggs for poached eggs for a runny yolk experience!
What to Serve With It
- Fresh fruit salad
- A side of Greek yogurt with honey
- A refreshing iced coffee or herbal tea
FAQs
Q: Can I make this recipe vegan?
