Method

Preparation of Guacamole

  1. 1

    Make the guacamole

    In a bowl, mash the ripe avocados with a fork or potato masher until smooth but still slightly chunky. Mix in lime juice, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and cilantro (if using) until well combined. Set aside.

Egg Cooking

  1. 2

    Cook the eggs

    In a non-stick skillet, heat butter or oil over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook until the whites are set and the yolks are done to your liking (scrambled or fried). For scrambled eggs, whisk the eggs in a bowl before adding them to the skillet, stirring gently until cooked through.

Assembling the Toast

  1. 3

    Toast the brioche

    Toast the brioche slices in a toaster or on a skillet until golden brown and crispy.

  2. 4

    Top the toast

    Spread a generous layer of guacamole on each slice of toasted brioche. Top with fresh arugula and halved cherry tomatoes.

  3. 5

    Add eggs and cheese

    Place the cooked eggs on top of the arugula and tomatoes. Sprinkle with cotija cheese.

  4. 6

    Finish with salsa

    Drizzle the roasted tomatillo salsa over the top of the assembled avocado toast. Serve immediately.
