Preparing the Avocado Spread

Halve the avocado and remove the pit. Scoop out the flesh into a bowl and mash it with a fork until it's creamy but still has some texture. Season with salt, pepper, and pepper flakes to taste.

Cooking the Spinach

Heat a small amount of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the spinach and cook for 2-3 minutes until wilted, seasoning lightly with salt and pepper.

Poaching the Egg

Bring a pot of water to a light simmer. Add a splash of vinegar if desired. Crack the egg into a cup and gently pour it into the simmering water. Cook for 3-4 minutes for a soft poached egg, then remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.

Assembling the Avocado Toast

Toast the slice of whole grain bread to your liking. Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted bread, top with the sautéed spinach, and carefully place the poached egg on top. Season with a pinch of salt, pepper, and pepper flakes if needed.
