In this satisfying avocado-egg toast recipe, try full-flavored, high-fiber bread, like a hearty slice of German-style rye or seeded multigrain from your favorite bakery. To turn this into a portable breakfast, swap the toast for a whole-wheat English muffin or wrap.

Avocado Toast with Egg, Spinach & Salsa

Serves 1

Active Time: 20 minutes

Total Time: 20 minutes

1/2 small avocado, mashed

1 slice whole-grain bread, toasted

Pinch of ground pepper

1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil, divided

2 cups baby spinach

 

1 large egg

1 tablespoon salsa

Spread avocado on toast; season with pepper.

Heat 1/2 teaspoon oil in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and spinach and cook, stirring, until the spinach is wilted, 30 to 60 seconds. Top the avocado toast with the spinach.
