Recipe Avocado Toast with Poached Eggs

Avocado toast with poached eggs is a delicious and nutritious meal that can be enjoyed any time of day. The creamy texture of the avocado pairs beautifully with the richness of the poached egg, while the whole grain toast provides a hearty base. This dish is not only simple to prepare but also packed with healthy fats and proteins, making it a perfect choice for breakfast or brunch.

Ingredients

• 1 slice whole grain bread
• ½ avocado
• 1 tsp lemon or lime juice
• 1 egg
• A few slices of smoked salmon

Method

1. Start by toasting the whole grain bread until golden brown. Once toasted, spread a thin layer of cream cheese over the top.
2. Next, slice the avocado thinly and layer it on top of the cream cheese. To prevent browning, drizzle the avocado with lemon or lime juice.
3. Add the slices of smoked salmon on top of the avocado for added flavor and protein.
4. Finally, prepare the poached egg. Crack the egg into a small bowl. In a saucepan, bring water to a simmer, then lower the heat to avoid a rolling boil. Add a splash of vinegar to the water. Create a gentle whirlpool with a whisk, then carefully slide the egg into the center. Cook for about 2-4 minutes, until the egg white is set but the yolk remains runny.
5. Place the poached egg on top of the salmon and avocado, and enjoy your delicious avocado toast!
