Ingredients
  

1 ripe avocado

2 slices of whole grain bread

1 large egg

1 slice of cheddar cheese

1 slice of tomato

Fresh spinach leaves

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Red pepper flakes (optional)

Lemon juice (optional)

Instructions
 

Begin by preparing the avocado. Cut it in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash with a fork and add a squeeze of lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Set aside.

    Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Crack the egg into the skillet and cook to your desired doneness (sunny side up, over easy, etc.). During the last minute, add the slice of cheddar cheese on top to melt.

      While the egg is cooking, toast the slices of whole grain bread until golden brown.

        Assemble the sandwich by spreading the mashed avocado generously over one slice of toasted bread.

          Layer fresh spinach, the cooked egg with melted cheese, and a slice of tomato on top of the avocado.

            Optionally, sprinkle some red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.

              Top with the second slice of bread and press down gently.

                Slice the sandwich in half for easier handling, and serve immediately.
