Ingredients
  

  • 2 slices whole grain bread
  • 1 large ripe avocado
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning optional
  • Fresh herbs for garnish chives, parsley, or microgreens

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the water for poaching: Fill a medium saucepan with about 3 inches of water. Add white vinegar and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
  • Toast the bread: While water heats, toast the whole grain bread slices until golden brown and crispy.
  • Prepare the avocado: Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop flesh into a bowl. Add lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mash with a fork until smooth but still slightly chunky.
  • Poach the eggs: Crack each egg into a small bowl. Create a gentle whirlpool in the simmering water with a spoon, then slowly lower one egg into the center. Repeat with the second egg. Poach for 3-4 minutes for runny yolks.
  • Assemble: Spread the mashed avocado evenly on the toasted bread. Drizzle with olive oil.
  • Finish: Using a slotted spoon, carefully remove poached eggs and place one on each toast. Sprinkle with everything bagel seasoning, red pepper flakes, and fresh herbs.
