Avocado Toast with Egg
As a weightlifting enthusiast, I constantly aim to increase my protein intake, with dairy being a key source. I’m particularly fond of Greek yogurt and cheese—it’s a daily indulgence!
Regarding avocado toast, I’ve adopted a clever trick from a friend who’s a guacamole pro: mixing cottage cheese with mashed avocado. It adds a creamy texture and a protein boost that perfectly complements my fitness goals.
Ingredients
- 1 slice whole wheat or sprouted bread
- ½ ripe and soft avocado
- 1 tablespoon Hiland Dairy Cottage Cheese
- 1 egg
- Lime wedge
Instructions
- Toast the bread.
- In a small bowl, mash the avocado and mix it with cottage cheese until combined.
- Spread the avocado mixture evenly onto the toast.
- For the egg, crack it gently into a hot, lightly greased pan. Reduce heat to medium and let it cook for about 2 minutes. Cover the pan with a lid for another minute to finish cooking without flipping the egg.
- Carefully slide the fried egg onto the toast.
- Season with cracked black pepper and sea salt.
- Optionally, squeeze a bit of lime juice over the top. Enjoy your protein-packed avocado toast with egg!
