Avocado and Egg Recipe

Ingredients:

  • Avocado: 1 ripe avocado
  • Eggs: 2 (you can use more if desired)
  • Salt: to taste
  • Pepper: to taste
  • Red Pepper Flakes: (optional, for a spicy kick)
  • Olive Oil or Butter: for cooking
  • Lemon Juice: (optional, for flavor)
  • Bread: (optional, for serving)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Avocado:

    • Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it lightly with a fork. If desired, add a squeeze of lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
  2. Cook the Eggs:

    • Poached: Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl, then gently slide into the water. Cook for about 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk. Remove with a slotted spoon.
    • Fried: Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs directly into the skillet and cook to your liking (sunny-side up, over easy, etc.).
  3. Toast the Bread (optional):

    • If using, toast the bread to your desired level of crispiness.
  4. Assemble the Dish:

    • Spread the mashed avocado on the toast (if using). Top with the cooked eggs.
  5. Season and Serve:

    • Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if desired. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • You can add toppings like sliced tomatoes, spinach, or feta cheese for extra flavor.
  • For a different twist, try adding herbs like cilantro or chives.
