Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

4 large eggs

1 tablespoon of lemon juice

2 tablespoons of Greek yogurt (or sour cream)

1 clove of garlic, minced

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 slices of whole grain or sourdough bread

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Fresh herbs for garnish (such as chives or parsley)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Avocado Spread: In a medium bowl, scoop out the avocado flesh and mash it with a fork. Stir in the lemon juice, minced garlic, Greek yogurt, salt, and pepper until creamy and well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

    Cook the Eggs: In a non-stick skillet, bring a small amount of water to a gentle simmer. Crack one egg into a small bowl and gently slide it into the water. Repeat with the other eggs, poaching them for about 3-4 minutes or until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Carefully remove them with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.

      Toast the Bread: While the eggs are cooking, toast the slices of bread until golden brown and crispy. This can be done in a toaster or under the broiler in the oven.

        Assemble the Toast: Spread a generous layer of the creamy avocado mixture over each slice of toasted bread. Top each slice with a poached egg.

          Add Finishing Touches: Sprinkle red pepper flakes over the eggs for a bit of heat (if desired). Garnish with fresh herbs for an extra pop of flavor and color.

            Serve Immediately: Serve your creamy avocado egg toast warm, preferably on a platter for sharing, or enjoy it straight from the kitchen!
