The Canvas: Sourdough Artistry

Start with the foundation – 2 slices of perfectly toasted sourdough bread. The golden crispiness sets the stage for what's to come, promising a delightful crunch with every bite.

Avocado Alchemy

Next, enter the star of the show – a ripe avocado. Slice it in half, remove the pit, and scoop the velvety green goodness into a bowl. Mash it with a fork and add a burst of freshness with the juice of 1/2 lemon. Now, for the magic touch – season with 1/4 teaspoon of smoked paprika, 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder, and a pinch of sea salt. Mix it all together until you've created a creamy, zesty avocado spread.

Egg-cellent Addition

While your bread is toasting and your avocado mixture is mingling flavors, prepare 2 soft-boiled eggs. Once your sourdough is golden and crisp, spread the avocado mixture evenly on both slices and delicately place a soft-boiled egg on each.

The Finishing Flourish

Now comes the fun part – the finishing touches that turn your breakfast into a work of art. Sprinkle the toast with 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh cilantro, 1 tablespoon of crumbled feta cheese, and 1 tablespoon of sliced scallions. Top it off with a generous handful of vibrant microgreens, adding a burst of color and nutrition.

Breakfast Bliss

Serve your creation immediately, savoring the warmth of the toast and the creaminess of the avocado. With each bite, you'll experience the perfect harmony of textures, from the crunch of the toast to the creaminess of the avocado and the runny yolk of the soft-boiled egg.
