easyWhy tonight. Toast hard, because everything going on top of it is soft. A fried egg with crisp white edges turns it from a snack into a breakfast.
What it needs
Nothing confirmed on your shelf yet — this list is the whole ask.
- avocado
- eggs
- bread
Good if you have them, fine if you do not: chili flakes.
Method
- Toast first and toast hard. Everything going on top of it is soft, and soft on soft is not a breakfast.
- Avocado mashed with salt and lemon in a bowl before it touches the bread.
- Eggs however you like them, but fried in a little too much butter with the whites crisped at the edge is the best version of this.
- Chili flakes and flaky salt at the end. Break the yolk on the plate, not in the pan.

Why each of these is on the list
What the ingredients are actually doing
- avocado
- Fat with no cooking required — it does what butter or cream would do in a dish that has neither.
- eggs
- The cheapest way to turn a side dish into dinner.
- bread
- Structure, thickener, and the reason a lot of these dishes stretch.

Cooks from the same box
If you bought for this, you can already make these
Shares bread, avocado
Avocado feta toast
Uses the avocado that is already soft.
Shares avocado, bread
Avocado toast
The avocado that has gone soft on the counter. Toast harder than you think, season the mash in a bowl and not on the bread, and pile it thick.
Shares bread, eggs
Arugula eggs on toast
Dress the leaves in a bowl before they go on. Undressed leaves on toast are decoration; dressed ones are the reason the plate works.
Shares bread, eggs
Anchovy egg toast
Hot toast, a melted anchovy, a jammy egg, lemon. Breakfast that tastes like a bar in Rome. Don't make it a Caesar on bread.

Cook it, then tell the shelf what you used.
The ranking is only as honest as the shelf behind it. Empty the cream, and everything that leaned on cream should stop being offered.
