1
Prepare the Avocado Spread
In a bowl, mash the ripe avocados with a fork. Add lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.
2
Poach the Eggs
Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl, then gently slide it into the simmering water. Poach the eggs 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.
3
Toast the Bread
While the eggs are poaching, toast the slices of whole grain bread until golden brown.
4
Assemble the Avo Toast
Spread the avocado mixture evenly onto each slice of toasted bread. Top each with a poached egg. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes and fresh herbs if desired.
