Fried Egg and Avocado Toast

I had heard of this nice combo of avocado and egg before. Maybe my first taste of something similar was a western omelet at a diner in San Francisco in the mid 1980's. But my first real taste of this avocado egg toast in the last year was at a great coffee shop named Drift in OIB, NC (Ocean Isle Beach is a little beach town 1 hour south of Wilmington, NC and 45 min north of Myrtle Beach, SC).

It's a real hit with my family on the weekends as it is kind of breakfast like and kinda lunch like. If you have teenagers, you know they like waking up during "brunch" time!

Here's the recipe:

Avocado Toast with Fried Egg

* Cut and mash 1 whole avocado with knife then fork with 1 tsp lemon or lime juice and 1/2 tsp garlic powder. Set aside.

* Cut up a handful of grape tomatoes and set aside.

* Toast 4-5 slices of whole grain bread.

* Fry 4-5 eggs.

* Spread avocado spread on toast, layer on fried egg, add on cut grape tomatoes, season with sea salt and pepper. Sprinkle on sunflower seeds for extra protein.

* Enjoy!

Goes nicely with fruit salad and some bacon. Delish!
