Start off your family’s Valentine’s Day with some heart-shaped, egg-topped, whole wheat, avocado toast. A yummy way to enjoy WIC foods. If Valentine’s Day morning is rushed, serve for dinner or weekend brunch. This recipe serves two although it can easily be doubled or tripled for more people.
Serves 2
Ingredients
2 large eggs*
1 ripe avocado*
2 slices whole wheat bread*
2 tablespoons cheddar cheese*, grated (optional)
1 tsp olive or vegetable oil
salt and pepper
juice of 1/2 lemon or lime* (optional)
Instructions
Cut avocado in half. Remove pit and scoop out avocado into a small bowl. Mash with a fork, adding a pinch of salt and pepper, and the juice of half a lemon or lime, if desired.
Heat oil in a large saute or cast iron pan over medium-low heat. Crack eggs into pan, cover with a lid and cook until egg white and yolk are set and no longer runny.
While eggs are cooking, toast bread and cut into heart shapes with a cookie cutter or by hand, if desired.
Assemble by topping each piece of toast with mashed avocado, one of the fried eggs (cut into a circle with a cookie cutter or by hand, if you'd like) and if you want, some grated cheese.
Enjoy!
