Ingredients
  

2 slices of whole-grain bread

1 ripe avocado

2 large eggs

1 cup fresh spinach leaves

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Optional toppings: red pepper flakes, crumbled feta cheese, thinly sliced radish

Instructions
 

Toast the Bread: Start by toasting the whole-grain bread slices in a toaster or on a skillet over medium-low heat until they are golden brown and crispy. Once toasted, set them aside to cool slightly.

    Sauté the Spinach: In a medium-sized skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil shimmers, add the fresh spinach leaves. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spinach is wilted and tender. Season the spinach with a pinch of salt and pepper, then remove from heat and set aside.

      Mash the Avocado: In a small mixing bowl, cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into the bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Use a fork to mash the avocado until you reach your desired level of creaminess, whether chunky or smooth.

        Cook the Eggs: In the same skillet used for the spinach, crack in the two eggs and cook them to your liking. For poached eggs, add a small amount of water to the skillet to create steam, and gently swirl the water before adding the eggs; cook for 2-4 minutes until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny. Alternatively, you can fry or scramble the eggs in the skillet.

          Assemble the Toast: Take each slice of toasted bread and spread a generous layer of the mashed avocado over the top. Next, evenly distribute the sautéed spinach on each slice, then carefully place the cooked eggs on top.

            Add Finishing Touches: Season the assembled toast with extra salt and pepper according to your taste. Add optional toppings like a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for heat, crumbled feta for creaminess, or thinly sliced radish for crunch and freshness.

              Serve and Enjoy: Serve your Green Goddess Egg Toast immediately while the eggs are warm and the ingredients are fresh. Enjoy this nutritious and delicious breakfast that's sure to fuel your day!
