Recipe Tips and Substitutions
- The avocados you choose should be ripe, on the soft side but not at all mushy.
- If you don't have tomatoes in your yard, no worries (I don't either) -- get the most beautiful tomatoes you can find at your local Farmers Market or grocery store.
- I love a super crunchy, rustic bread for Avocado Tomato Toast. Of course, you should use your own favorite. There are no rules here.
- Measurements don't have to be exact for this recipe, and they will likely vary.
- The red pepper flakes or Togarashi add a touch of tasty heat. If you want to keep it mild, skip it.
Serving Suggestions
- The Avocado Tomato Toast with the Soft Boiled Egg can be a whole meal in and of itself. Breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner.
- If you do want to add to it, a salad with complimentary flavors would be delicious.
- And whether or not it stands alone, try serving it with My Mom's Meyer Lemonade. You'll love it.
I hope you love Avocado Tomato Toast as much as my family and I do!

This looks like the best way to start the day or even enjoy for lunch. I love avocado especially on toast and the fact you added an egg on top is just the cherry on top!

I love that ... egg on top is cherry on top. 😀 Thanks!

I could eat this every morning. In fact, I practically do! However, can I still call it authentic if I slice my avocado rather than mash it? Cuz I always do. GREG
valentina
You know it, Greg! Ha! 🙂
Jeff the Chef
You know, your avocado toast really is beautiful. I've never had avocado toast with soft-boiled egg, but what a tempting combination. And of course, you simply cannot beat a garden-fresh tomato.
valentina
Thanks so much, Jeff! You will love the egg-avo combination. 🙂 ~Valentina
David @ Spiced
You had me at rustic bread, Valentina! I good piece of rustic bread and olive oil can go a long way...but then top that with avocado, egg and tomatoes from the garden? Sounds like lunch today! 🙂
valentina
Thank you, David. A crusty piece of rustic bread is indeed the best. 🙂 ~Valentina
