Begin by toasting the slices of whole grain bread to your desired level of crispness, using a toaster or toaster oven.
While the bread is toasting, cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.
Add 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice and a pinch of salt to the avocado, then mash until smooth using a fork. Set aside.
Heat 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
Crack the eggs individually into the pan and cook them for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the whites are set but yolks are still runny. Season the eggs with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Once the bread is toasted, spread the mashed avocado evenly on each slice.
Top the avocado toast with cherry tomato halves, placing 2 halves on each slice of toast.
Carefully place a fried egg on top of each avocado toast.
Garnish the avocado toast with crumbled feta cheese and fresh basil leaves.
Drizzle the remaining 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil over the toasts before serving.
