Directions

  1. To poach each egg, fill a 1-cup microwaveable bowl or teacup with 1/2 cup water. Gently crack an egg into the water, making sure it’s completely submerged. Cover with a saucer and microwave on high for about 1 minute, or until the white is set and the yolk is starting to set but still soft (not runny).

  2. Toast the bread and spread each piece with 1/4 of the mashed avocado.

  3. Sprinkle avocado with the salt (optional) and pepper. Top each piece with a poached egg. Top the egg with 1 Tbsp. Greek yogurt.

    While the meal sounds great, what is a good substitute for eggs if one is allergic to eggs (whites and yolks)? I like and can eat all ingredients but have strong egg allergy. Suggestions?
