Creamy avocado meets herby pesto and cheese on golden, crispy toast, topped with a perfectly cooked egg—this elevated twist on classic toast is packed with flavor and ready in minutes. Whether you're looking for a quick breakfast, a nourishing lunch, or a snack that satisfies, this vibrant toast checks all the boxes.

Ingredients

1 Eggland's Best egg, large

1 tablespoon mozzarella cheese

1 tablespoon pesto

1 slice sourdough bread

Avocado

Fresh basil for garnish

Preparation

  1. Heat a non-stick pan on medium heat. Instead of adding oil, add the cheese and pesto.
  2. Crack an egg directly into the pesto and let it cook to your preferred doneness. Cover with a lid for a runny yolk.
  3. While the egg cooks, toast a slice of sourdough bread.
  4. Spread the avocado on the toast (optional but delicious).
  5. Place the pesto egg on top of the toast.
  6. Garnish with fresh basil for extra flavor, and enjoy!
