Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Whole grain burger buns
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 1 medium Avocado
- 1 medium Tomato
- 1 cup Fresh spinach leaves
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Slice the whole grain burger buns in half and lightly toast them until golden brown.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan, season with a pinch of salt and black pepper, and cook for about 2-3 minutes until the whites are set. You can cover the pan with a lid for firmer yolks.
While the eggs are cooking, slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork and season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice.
Slice the tomato into thin rounds.
To assemble the burger, spread the mashed avocado evenly on the bottom halves of the toasted buns.
Place a handful of fresh spinach leaves on top of the avocado.
Add a few slices of tomato on top of the spinach.
Gently place the cooked egg on the tomato slices, then top with the other half of the bun.
Serve the Heart-Healthy Perfect Egg Burger immediately, enjoying the balance of textures from the creamy avocado, crisp vegetables, and runny egg.
