Breakfast anyone?! Yes, please! Starting your day off with a healthy balanced breakfast can be hard. One bite of this and you just might change your mind. The result is an open-faced egg sandwich that’s packed full of protein, healthy fat, and leafy greens. Now this is how we do avocado toast!
Ingredients
- 1 slice of bread, I prefer sourdough
- ½ of a hass avocado
- ¼ cup arugula, more or less depending on taste
- ½ TB butter
- 1 egg
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Toast the bread in a toaster.
- Spoon the avocado from the peel, and then mash the avocado with a fork. Spoon the mashed avocado on the toasted bread. Then, place the arugula on top of the mashed avocado.
- In a small skillet, over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, crack the egg directly into the hot butter and skillet. Cook the egg uncovered for about 2 minutes, allowing the whites to set, and then cover the skillet until the yolk is slightly cooked, or fully cooked (depending on your preference). This should only take about 2-3 minutes.
- Sprinkle the egg with salt and pepper, and then place it directly on top of the arugula and avocado toast. The arugula will probably wilt a bit due to the hot egg…it’s okay!
- Serve immediately.
Optional: Depending on what flavors you like you can also add lemon juice or red pepper flakes to the avocado mix. Or try both together!
