*Creamy avocado meets soft-boiled eggs and chili flakes on crisp whole-grain toast—simple, delicious, and totally crave-worthy.*

This toast is my go-to when I want something comforting but still fresh. The soft-boiled eggs add that perfectly runny yolk that drips into the mashed avocado and gets soaked up by the bread—it’s rich, satisfying, and honestly kind of therapeutic to eat. If you're not into precise cooking, don’t worry—six minutes in boiling water gets you that soft-set white and golden liquid center every time.

I usually throw this together for a late breakfast or a lazy lunch. It feels elevated but takes no time, and you can dress it up however you want. I love adding microgreens or a pinch of red pepper flakes for color and flavor, but it’s also totally delicious just as is. It’s one of those reliable staples that never lets me down and always makes me feel like I’m doing something good for my body.
