Welcome to Monday, y’all. You deserve something a little better than that microwave sandwich or bowl of mush. You deserve a bright and beautiful breakfast made with fresh, wholesome ingredients like tomatoes, basil, eggs and buttery, crusty artisan bread.

It’s delicious. It’s easy. It’s colorful. It’s downright sexy. And it makes your tummy feel good. You get full without that I-can’t-ever-eat again feeling, because you will most certainly feel like you can eat another dozen slices of soft, crisp bread slathered with butter and creamy avocado, topped with fluffy eggs and a mouthwatering medley of tomatoes, basil and mozzarella.

How’s that bowl of mush sounding now?

How do you make it? Well, you start with my No-Knead Crusty Artisan Bread (one of my most popular recipes). But, any store-bought loaf of crusty goodness will do.

Slice it, toast it, and butter it. Following along so far? Okay, good. Mash the heck out of a ripe avocado and spread it all over your buttery bread. A little salt. You can also stop right here, because avocado toast = food love.

But, I suggest a pile of pillowy soft scrambled eggs on top. Add them if you’re so inclined, or for a veggie-friendly option, skip ’em and go straight to the good stuff – mozzarella, tomatoes and fresh basil. Serve with forks and knives if you’re civilized. Or, be like me and whack a slice in half and dig in with your hands. No shame!

Want a healthy, incredibly delish and beauty of a breakfast, lunch or dinner? Make this amazing avocado toast, and it’s done!
