Healthy Avocado Toast with Poached Egg
Ingredients:
-
1 ripe avocado (234 calories)
-
2 slices of whole-grain bread (138 calories)
-
2 eggs (140 calories)
-
Salt and pepper to taste
-
Red pepper flakes (optional)
-
Fresh herbs (like cilantro or parsley) for garnish
Instructions:
-
Toast the Bread: Start by toasting your whole-grain bread slices until they are golden and crispy.
-
Prepare the Avocado: While the bread is toasting, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it with a fork until smooth. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
-
Poach the Eggs: Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl, then gently slide them into the simmering water. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.
-
Assemble the Toast: Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted bread slices. Place a poached egg on top of each slice.
-
Season and Garnish: Sprinkle with a bit more salt and pepper, and add red pepper flakes if you like a bit of heat. Garnish with fresh herbs.
