• 1 roma tomato
• 1 medium ripe avocado

3. Toast the bread to your liking (light, medium, dark).
4. Cook the eggs to your liking (poached, fried, scrambled)
5. Assemble the open-faced sandwich as following: spread avocado onto the bread, then add sliced tomato and egg. Sprinkled with black pepper, salt, and 1-2 basil leaves for flavor. Serve warm.
