Fit & Healthy

Note:  I sometimes splurge and have an Against the Grains roll, which is gluten free and grain free.  The egg and avocado is just as good on spinach, or just on a plate.  If you are not Paleo, use your favorite roll, bagel or English muffin.

Directions

• Bring several inches of water to a simmer in a cooking pot.  A simmer, rather than a boil, means less bubbles and less agitation to break the eggs apart.  Break each egg into a ramekin or other small dish, and then gently slide eggs into simmering water, one at a time.  Turn off the heat and cover the pan for 4 minutes.  Feel free to adjust the time, depending on how runny or cooked you like the yolk.  Use a slotted spoon to remove the eggs from the water.

• While the eggs are cooking, cut your roll in half and pop it in the toaster or toaster oven.  If using a bed of spinach instead of a roll, arrange the spinach leaves on a two plates.

• Slice the stem end off of the avocado.  Cut the avocado in half lengthwise and twist until it comes apart.  Use a spoon to scoop each half out and cut in slices.

• Mash half the avocado onto each half roll.  Place poached eggs on avocado.  Sprinkle with salt and pepper.  Garnish with cilantro.

• Enjoy!
