Instructions
Creating Avocado Smash Breakfast Stacks is a straightforward process that promises rewarding results. Follow these steps:
Step 1: Prepare the Avocado Smash
- Halve and Pit the Avocados: Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.
- Smash the Avocado: Use a fork to mash the avocado to your desired consistency.
- Add Lemon Juice: Stir in 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to prevent browning and add a zesty flavor.
- Season: Add salt, pepper, and optional red pepper flakes to taste. Mix well.
Step 2: Cook the Eggs
- Heat the Olive Oil: In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
- Fry the Eggs: Crack the eggs into the skillet, cooking to your preference (sunny-side up or over-easy).
- Season: Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Step 3: Prepare the Bread
- Toast the Bread: While the eggs are cooking, toast the slices of bread until golden brown.
- Drizzle with Olive Oil: Lightly drizzle the remaining olive oil over the toasted bread.
Step 4: Assemble the Stacks
- Layer the Ingredients: Start with a slice of toasted bread, spread a generous layer of avocado smash, add a handful of fresh greens, top with a fried egg, and finish with cherry tomatoes, red onion slices, and feta cheese.
- Garnish: Add microgreens on top for an elegant touch.
