These take poached eggs to a new level :) Use thick slices of a wholegrain bread or use whatever you have on hand or prefer. Makes a nice meal for brunch, lunch or even an easy dinner :) The cooking time is for bringing the water to a simmer and poaching the eggs. If you are short of time or don't have lemon or lime juice just mash half an avocado straight onto each slice of toast, sprinkle with salt & pepper and follow rest of recipe. Ingredients:
4 eggs |
2 ripe avocados |
2 teaspoons lemon juice (or juice of 1 lime) |
4 slices thick bread |
1 cup cheese (grated, edam, gruyere or whatever you have on hand) |
salt & freshly ground black pepper |
4 teaspoons butter (for spreading on toast) |
Directions:
1. Poach eggs using your favourite method.
2. Meanwhile cut the avocados in half and remove the stones.
3. Using a spoon scoop out the flesh into a bowl and add the lemon or lime juice and the salt & pepper.

5. Toast the bread and spread with butter.
6. Spread the avocado mix onto each slice of buttered toast and top each with a poached egg.
