This avocado toast with microgreens, cherry tomatoes, and poached eggs is delicious and packed with nutrients, making it a perfect meal to fuel your day!
Ingredients
• 2 slices of your favorite bread (sourdough, whole grain, or a rustic country loaf)
Avocado spread
• 1 ripe avocado, mashed
• 1 tsp lime juice
• 2 tbsp mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp creme fraise
• 1/2 tsp jalapeno finely chopped
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 3 tbsp feta cheese (crumbled)
• A handful of microgreens (such as arugula, basil, Mini broccoli cress, or mini coriander microgreens )
• 1 large egg
• Olive oil for drizzling
• Red pepper flakes or fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
Toast the Bread
- Toast the bread slices until golden brown and crispy. You can do this in a toaster, grill, or skillet with olive oil for extra flavor.
Prepare the Avocado
- Cut the avocado in half while the bread is toasting and remove the pit. Scoop out the flesh into a bowl.
- Mash the avocado with a fork until creamy, leaving it slightly chunky if you prefer texture.
- Stir in lime juice, mayonnaise, creme fraise, finely chopped jalapeno, salt, and pepper.
Poach the Eggs
- Bring a medium-sized pot of water to a simmer (not a rolling boil). Add a splash of vinegar (optional, to help the egg whites stay together).
- Crack each egg into a small bowl or cup.
- Gently stir the simmering water to create a small whirlpool. Carefully lower the eggs into the water, one at a time.
- For soft, runny yolks, boil eggs for about 3-4 minutes (adjust time if you prefer your eggs firmer).
- Using a slotted spoon, carefully remove the eggs from the water and place them on a paper towel to drain.

Assemble the Toast
- Spread a generous amount of mashed avocado on each slice of toasted bread.
- Add feta cheese and then top with halved cherry tomatoes, arranging them evenly over the avocado spread.
- Carefully place one poached egg on top of each toast.
- Garnish with microgreens, a drizzle of olive oil, and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or fresh herbs, if desired.
Serve
Add flavor by seasoning with salt, pepper, and olive oil.
Serving Suggestions
• Serve with a side of fresh fruit or pair with a smoothie for a complete breakfast or brunch.
• Add some goat cheese for extra creaminess, or sprinkle with a bit of balsamic glaze for a tangy touch.
