Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 Eggs (for protein and creamy texture)
  • 2 slices Whole Grain Bread (for fiber and crunch)
  • 1/4 cup Spinach or Arugula (fresh greens for vitamins)
  • 2 Tomato Slices (juicy and tangy)
  • 1/4 Avocado, sliced (for creamy texture and healthy fats)
  • Salt and Pepper to taste (for seasoning)
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil or Butter (for cooking the eggs)

Optional Variations

  • 1 slice Cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or feta for extra creaminess)
  • 1/4 cup sautéed Mushrooms, Bell Peppers, or Onions (for added texture and flavor)
  • Chili flakes, Hot sauce, or sliced Jalapeños (for a spicy kick)
  • Egg whites only or smoked Salmon or Turkey bacon (alternative proteins)
  • Gluten-free or low-carb Bread (to suit dietary preferences)

Instructions

  1. Prep Your Ingredients: Gather all ingredients. Wash the spinach or arugula, slice the tomato, and cut the avocado into thin pieces for layering.
  2. Cook the Eggs: Heat olive oil or butter in a pan over medium heat. Crack in the eggs and cook sunny-side up, over-easy, or scrambled according to your preference.
  3. Toast the Bread: While the eggs cook, toast the whole grain bread slices until golden brown and slightly crisp.
  4. Assemble Your Sandwich: Place the cooked eggs on one slice of toasted bread. Top with avocado slices, tomato, fresh greens, and season with salt and pepper. Add any optional ingredients if desired. Cover with the second slice of toast.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Cut the sandwich in half for easy handling. Serve warm and savor the balance of textures and flavors.

Notes

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Do not overcook eggs; keep them slightly runny or just set for creamy texture.
  • Toast bread until crisp to prevent sogginess from moist ingredients.
  • Season well with salt and pepper to enhance natural flavors.
  • Prep veggies or cook eggs ahead for a quicker breakfast on busy mornings.
