Savory French Toast and Avocado Sandwiches

Ingredients 1 egg 1 tablespoon milk 2 slices whole wheat bread 1 avocado 1/2 lemon, freshly squeezed 1/2 cup Gruyère cheese, shredded sea salt to taste hot sauce, optional Directions Toast both slices of bread until golden brown. With a serrated knife, cut each piece of bread into four thin slices. You should have eight slices total (pictured below). Crack your egg into a bowl and scramble together with the cheese, milk and pinch of salt. Dip your bread slices into the egg batter, coating both sides. Heat your frying pan to medium high heat and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Remove bread from the egg mixture and place into frying pan. Continue until all slices of bread are in the pan. Cook until a nice crisp golden brown, then flip, and cook the other side. Slice the avocado in half and seed. Using the avocado skin as a bowl, combine the avocado, lemon juice, a pinch of sea salt and a drop of hot sauce and mash together with a fork. Spread a teaspoon of the avocado mixture onto one piece of the toasted-egg bread and lay another piece of the bread on top. Repeat. You should have 4 sandwiches total.  Print This Post
