For Breakfast, lunch, or dinner

To eat avocado toast for breakfast, lunch, or dinner (or all of the above), start by learning how to pick a ripe avocado.

If the avocado yields to firm gentle pressure you know it's ripe and ready to eat. Ripe, ready-to-eat avocados may have a darker color but color can vary so it is best to go by feel as well as color. It will feel slightly soft but it will not feel “mushy” to the touch. Ripe fruit is perfect for that day.

The avocado egg sandwich is rather easy to make and requires very few ingredients, here they are: 1 slice of bread (whole-wheat is preferred) ⅓ of an avocado 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil 1 teaspoon Lemon Juice A pinch of salt & pepper to taste

How to make a QUICK sandwich

First, you want to cut your avocado in half then take out its pit. You can scoop the half without the pit onto a small plate or bowl for the sandwich. Next, you want to m a k e  y o u r  hard-boiled egg by placing the egg in a saucepan filled with cold water.

Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to simmer for 10 minutes. Drain the hot water and fill the saucepan with cold water to cool your egg completely. Peel the shell off of your hard-boiled egg (it should slide right off if you've done it correctly). Chop the avocado into small pieces (or mash avocado like guacamole). Mix avocado, lemon juice, olive oil, salt & pepper together in the bowl or onto a plate where you previously placed avocado. Toast bread until desired crunchiness is reached and spread avocado mixture on toast. Place lettuce on top of avocado mixture and place the hard-boiled egg on top of lettuce
