Ingredients
  

4 small white or whole grain pita pockets

2 ripe avocados

4 large eggs

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro (optional)

Chili flakes for garnish (optional)

Microgreens or arugula for serving (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Pita: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut each pita pocket into halves or quarters, creating rounds. Place them on a baking sheet. Brush lightly with olive oil and bake for about 5-7 minutes, until they are crisp and lightly golden.

    Cook the Eggs: In a medium-sized skillet, heat a teaspoon of olive oil over medium heat. Crack each egg into the skillet, being careful not to break the yolks, and season with salt and pepper. Cook to your preferred doneness, about 2-3 minutes for a runny yolk or up to 5-6 minutes for a firm yolk. Remove from heat.

      Mash the Avocado: While the eggs are cooking, scoop the flesh of the avocados into a bowl. Add lemon juice, salt, pepper, and chopped cilantro (if using). Mash with a fork until you have a smooth yet chunky consistency.

        Assemble the Toast Rounds: Once the pita rounds are done baking, spread a generous spoonful of the mashed avocado mixture on each round. Top each with a cooked egg.

          Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle chili flakes on top for a little heat if desired. Add microgreens or arugula for a fresh touch. Serve immediately while still warm and enjoy!
