Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Scoop the flesh into a bowl and mash it with a fork to desired consistency.
Add lemon juice, black pepper, and garlic powder into the mashed avocado. Mix well and set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and let it warm up.
Crack the eggs into the pan, taking care not to break the yolks. Cook until the whites are set and yolk is to your preference, usually about 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk.
While the eggs are cooking, toast the slices of whole grain bread until golden brown.
Spread the mashed avocado mixture evenly onto each slice of toasted bread.
Top each avocado toast with a fried egg.
Garnish with chopped cilantro and a pinch of red pepper flakes if desired.
Serve immediately for a fresh and satisfying meal.
