Helpful Tips
For a perfectly soft-boiled egg, ensure your eggs are at room temperature before boiling. If you prefer a firmer yolk, increase the boiling time by 1-2 minutes.
Storage Instructions
This dish is best enjoyed fresh. However, if you need to store it, keep the components separate (avocado mash and boiled eggs) in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Assemble just before serving.
Ingredient Substitutions
If you don’t have microgreens, freshly chopped parsley or cilantro make a great alternative. For an extra flavor twist, consider adding a squeeze of lemon juice to the mashed avocado.
Pairings
Pair this delightful avocado toast with a hot cup of coffee or a refreshing glass of orange juice. For a heartier breakfast, serve alongside a fresh fruit salad or a simple green smoothie.
