- 2. While the eggs are cooking, toast the whole grain bread until golden brown.
- 3. Cut the avocados 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 to taste.
- 4. Cook the bacon in a skillet until crispy. Drain on paper towels.
- 5. Once the eggs are cool, peel and slice them.
- 6. Assemble the toast: spread a generous layer of mashed avocado on each slice of toast, top with sliced eggs, and add bacon on the side.
- 7. Serve with a side of mixed berries for a refreshing touch.
