Miso Avocado Toast with Eggs and Greens
This Miso Avocado Toast with Eggs and Greens recipe puts a fresh spin on the classic avocado toast combo with delicious results. Featuring local and seasonal ingredients, this is one of my all-time favourite quick breakfast recipes!
This toast recipe is so addictive that for the longest time it was the first thing I’d make whenever I returned home from travelling.
What is miso?
Miso is a fermented soybean paste. It has a salty, umami flavour profile and is most often found in Japanese dishes. A few years ago, I started experimenting using miso for things other than ramen and Asian-inspired recipes because of its digestive health benefits. Here I’ve combined it with hummus for the base and the result is beyond delicious!
If you need more convincing, remember that avocados are not only a delicious source of heart healthy fats — they are nutritional powerhouses high in potassium, fibre and antioxidants that provide a range of health benefits. Combine both the above with lots of fresh lemon, farm fresh eggs, hummus, greens and your favourite toasted crusty bread and you get a flavourful, nutrient-rich and satisfying toast combo you’ll want to make again and again.
