Servings: 6
Equipment
- Baking sheet
- Saucepan
Ingredients
- 6 large slices sourdough or French bread
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 medium avocados
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon chili flakes
- 6 large eggs poached or fried
- 1/2 cup store-bought salsa
- 1/4 cup crumbled Cotija cheese or feta
- 1/4 cup pickled jalapeños drained
- fresh cilantro for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Arrange the bread slices in on a single layer on a large baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and bake in the oven until golden brown, about 5 to 8 minutes. You can also pop them under the broiler for a few seconds on both sides.
- In a large bowl, mash together the avocado, lime juice, salt, pepper, cumin, and chili flakes until somewhat smooth. A few chunks is okay.
- To assemble the toasts, spread the mashed avocado evenly among the toasted bread slices. Top each with a poached or fried egg, and then top with salsa, cotija cheese, jalapeños, and cilantro. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
