avocado toast – 10 min breakfast

I have this for breakfast almost everyday. It’s the perfect balance of protein, healthy fat and slow digesting carbohydrate to fuel me through busy mornings. And it’s fast once you get the logistics down to achieve maximum efficiency – takes me less than 10 min to make and 2 min to devour its full glory.

Theres a lot of variation of this on the inter web but the basics are straight forward. I love hot sauce so if I could put siracha on everything I would. The key to create a sunny side up egg with runny yolk is to start in a cold pan.
