Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

4 large eggs

4 slices of whole grain bread or English muffins

1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)

Fresh cilantro or parsley, for garnish (optional)

Red pepper flakes, for a kick (optional)

Instructions
 

Prep the Bread: Preheat your broiler. Place the bread or English muffins on a baking sheet and lightly brush both sides with olive oil. Broil for 2-3 minutes until golden brown, flipping halfway through for even toasting.

    Cook the Eggs: In a non-stick skillet, heat a little olive oil over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika if using. Cook to your desired doneness (sunny-side up, over-easy, or scrambled). Remove from heat.

      Prepare the Avocado: While the eggs are cooking, cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork, adding salt and pepper to taste.

        Assemble the Melts: Spread a generous layer of mashed avocado on each piece of toasted bread or muffin. Place one cooked egg on top of the avocado layer.

          Add Cheese & Broil: Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the eggs. Return the loaded bread to the broiler for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.

            Garnish & Serve: Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for added spice if desired. Enjoy your Avocado Egg Breakfast Melts hot!
