Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 4 large eggs
- 200 grams cherry tomatoes
- 100 grams baby spinach
- 4 slices whole grain bread
- 1 large avocado
- 200 grams smoked salmon
- 150 grams mushrooms
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 medium lemon
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Slice the mushrooms and red bell pepper. Add them to the skillet and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened.
Meanwhile, halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the pan with a pinch of salt and black pepper, cooking for an additional 3 minutes, then remove the vegetables and keep warm.
In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and add the baby spinach. Cook for 2-3 minutes until just wilted, then set aside with the other vegetables.
While the vegetables are cooking, toast the whole grain bread slices in a toaster or oven until golden brown.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it lightly with a fork, season with lemon juice, salt, and pepper to taste.
In another small pan over medium-low heat, cook the eggs to your preference, either scrambled or sunny-side-up, seasoned with a little salt and pepper.
To assemble, spread the avocado mixture over the toasted bread slices and top each with smoked salmon.
Plate by arranging the cooked eggs, sautéed vegetables, and avocado toasts on each plate.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately while warm.
