Chef's Note

For the perfect poached egg, use the freshest eggs possible and add vinegar to the water to help the whites coagulate quickly. If you're in a hurry, you can prepare the avocado mixture the night before (add extra lemon juice to prevent browning) and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Just toast the bread and poach the eggs in the morning for a quick but impressive breakfast.

Ingredients

  • 6 slices whole grain bread

  • 2 medium ripe avocados

  • 6 large eggs

  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes

  • 1 cup microgreens or arugula

  • 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

  • 1 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning

Instructions
  • 1

    Fill a medium saucepan with about 3 inches of water. Add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.

  • 2

    While the water is heating, toast 6 slices of whole grain bread until golden brown.

  • 3

    Cut 2 medium avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Mash with a fork until slightly chunky.

  • 4

    Slice 1 cup of cherry tomatoes in half and set aside.

  • 5

    When the water is simmering (not boiling), crack 1 egg into a small bowl. Create a gentle whirlpool in the water with a spoon, then carefully slide the egg into the center of the whirlpool. Cook for about 3 minutes for a runny yolk. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel to drain. Repeat with the remaining 5 eggs, cooking 2-3 at a time.

  • 6

    Spread the mashed avocado mixture evenly on the 6 toasted bread slices.

  • 7

    Top each slice with 1 poached egg, a few cherry tomato halves, and a sprinkle of microgreens or arugula.

  • 8

    Drizzle each toast with 2 teaspoons of extra virgin olive oil, divided among all servings.

  • 9

    Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes and 1 tablespoon of everything bagel seasoning, divided among all servings.

  • 10

    Serve immediately while the eggs are still warm.

Delicious. Used an egg poacher instead of the water swirl.
