Avocado egg sandwiches are a delicious and nutritious breakfast or brunch option. Here’s a simple recipe to make one:
Ingredients:
2 slices of whole-grain bread (or your choice of bread)
1 ripe avocado
2 large eggs
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil or butter (for cooking the eggs)
Optional toppings: sliced tomatoes, red onion, cheese, or hot sauce
Instructions:
Prepare the Avocado:
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.
Mash the avocado with a fork until it’s smooth.
Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. You can also add a squeeze of lemon or lime juice for extra flavor.
Cook the Eggs:
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add olive oil or butter.
Crack the eggs into the skillet, one at a time.
Season the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Cook the eggs to your desired doneness. For a classic sandwich, you can cook them over-easy, so the yolk is still runny.
Toast the Bread:
While the eggs are cooking, toast your slices of bread until they are golden brown.
Assemble the Sandwich:
Spread the mashed avocado onto one or both slices of toasted bread, depending on your preference.
Place the cooked eggs on top of the avocado.
Add any optional toppings you like, such as sliced tomatoes, red onion, cheese, or hot sauce.
Top the sandwich with the second slice of bread.
Serve and Enjoy:
Cut the sandwich in half, if desired, and serve immediately while the eggs are still warm.
Feel free to customize your avocado egg sandwich with additional ingredients like bacon, spinach, or any of your favorite condiments. This recipe is quite versatile, so you can make it to your taste. It’s a healthy and filling way to start your day!
