SERVES: 4

PREP TIME: 15 MINUTES

COOKING TIME: 15 MINUTES

 

 

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 ripe avocado, sliced
  • 4 slices of your favorite bread (whole grain, sourdough, or gluten-free)
  • 1 medium-sized tomato, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup baby spinach or arugula
  • 4 slices of your preferred cheese (cheddar, Swiss, or pepper jack)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Hot sauce or salsa (optional, for added flavor and spice)

 

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a tablespoon of olive oil or butter to the pan.
  2. Crack the eggs into the skillet one by one, being careful not to break the yolks. Season each egg with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook the eggs to your desired level of doneness. For sunny-side-up eggs, cook for about 2-3 minutes until the whites are set, and the yolks are still runny. If you prefer over-easy or over-medium eggs, carefully flip them after 2 minutes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  3. While the eggs are cooking, prepare the avocado by cutting it in half, removing the pit, and thinly slicing the flesh.
  4. Toast the slices of bread until they reach your desired level of crispiness.
  5. Assemble the sandwiches: On one slice of toasted bread, layer a few slices of avocado, followed by a slice of cheese, a cooked egg, tomato slices, red onion, and a handful of baby spinach or arugula.
  6. Top the sandwich with the second slice of toasted bread.
  7. If you prefer a warm sandwich, return the assembled sandwich to the skillet and cook for an additional minute on each side until the cheese melts slightly.
  8. Repeat the process for the remaining sandwiches.
  9. Serve the Avocado and Egg Breakfast Sandwiches immediately, optionally with hot sauce or salsa on the side for added flavor and heat.
