👩‍🍳
Instructions

  1. Toast the slice of whole grain bread until golden brown.
  2. While the bread is toasting, bring a small pot of water to a gentle simmer.
  3. Crack the egg into a small bowl, then gently slide it into the simmering water.
  4. Poach the egg for about 3 minutes, until the white is set but the yolk is still runny.
  5. Meanwhile, mash the avocado in a bowl and season with salt and pepper.
  6. Spread the mashed avocado on the toasted bread.
  7. Carefully remove the poached egg with a slotted spoon and place it on top of the avocado toast. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes if desired.
