Notes
- Avocado Ripeness: Use a ripe avocado that yields gently to pressure but isn’t mushy. Overripe avocados will affect both flavor and texture.
- Egg Options: Any egg style works. For a lower-fat option, go with hard-boiled. For a richer bite, use a poached or sunny-side-up egg.
- Topping Ideas: Don’t skip toppings—they elevate the flavor. Try red chili flakes for heat, microgreens for crunch, or feta for tang.
- Bread Choices: Whole grain and sourdough offer the best structure and nutrition. Use gluten-free bread for dietary needs.
- Make It Meal-Prep Friendly: While avocado is best fresh, you can pre-boil eggs and keep them chilled. Toast and mash right before serving.
