Healthy Avocado Poached Egg Breakfast Recipes

SIMPLE POACHED EGG AND AVOCADO TOAST

Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to boil (use enough water to cover the eggs when they lay in the bottom). Drop the metal rims (outer rim only) of two mason jar lids into the pot so they are laying flat on the bottom. When the water is boiling, turn off the heat and carefully crack the eggs directly into each rim. Cover the pot and poach for 5 minutes (4 for super soft, 4:30 for soft, 5 or more for semi-soft yolks).
• While the eggs are cooking, toast the bread and smash the avocado on each piece of toast. When the eggs are done, use a spatula to lift the eggs out of the water. Gently pull the rim off of the eggs (I do this right on the spatula, over the water) and place the poached eggs on top of the toast. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and fresh herbs; serve with the fresh quartered heirloom tomatoes.

PALEO BAKED EGGS IN AVOCADO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Crack the eggs into a bowl, being careful to keep the yolks intact.
• Arrange avocado halves in a baking dish, resting them along the edge so avocado won't tip over. Gently spoon 1 egg yolk into the avocado hole. Continue spooning egg white into the hole until full. Repeat with remaining egg yolk, egg white, and avocado. Season each filled avocado with chives, parsley, sea salt, and pepper.
• Gently place baking dish in the preheated oven and bake until eggs are cooked, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle bacon over avocado.

POACHED EGGS WITH SMASHED AVOCADO & TOMATOES

Steps:

• Heat a non-stick frying pan, very lightly brush the cut surface of the tomatoes with a little oil, then cook them, cut-side down, in the pan until they have softened and slightly caramelised. Meanwhile, heat a pan of water, carefully break in the eggs and leave to poach for 1-2 mins until the whites are firm but the yolks are still runny.
• Halve and stone the avocado, then scoop out the flesh and smash onto the bread. Add the eggs, grind over black pepper and add a handful of rocket to each portion. Serve the tomatoes on the side.

HEALTHY AVOCADO & POACHED EGG BREAKFAST

Steps:

• Chop the piccolino tomatoes into quarters and fry over a medium heat for 3-5 minutes.
• Meanwhile add water to a saucepan and bring to the boil. Add in 1 tsp of apple cider vinegar and reduce the heat to a simmer. Using a spoon start to stir the water to create a vortex, then carefully drop in the eggs one at a time. Leave to simmer for 3-5 minutes.
• While the eggs and tomatoes are cooking, toast the rye bread and mash up the avocado with the lemon juice.
• Plate everything up, then serve.

POACHED EGGS ON AVOCADO & FETA TOAST

Steps:

• Fill a large saucepan with water, add the vinegar and bring to a hard boil over a high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat so the water is simmering, then use a spoon to swirl the water into a whirlpool. Crack in both eggs and cook for 2 1/2 mins.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mash the avocado, feta, chilli flakes and lemon juice, and season well with black pepper. Toast the bread.
• Pile the avocado and feta on the toast, then put a poached egg on top of each.
