Steps:
- Spray inside of bowl with nonstick spray or lightly coat with oil or butter. Add eggs, salt, pepper, and 1 Tbsp. water; mix with a fork until combined.
- Microwave on high 30 seconds; you should see bits of solid egg floating in uncooked part. Stir gently (this will help egg cook evenly) and microwave again 30 seconds or until egg puffs up dramatically. Add cheese and continue to microwave until egg is just set and cheese is melted, 15-30 seconds. Using a small spatula, transfer egg mixture to bottom toast slice. Top with avocado, drizzle with hot sauce or pesto, then top with remaining toast slice. Serve immediately.

AVOCADO, EGG AND ENGLISH MUFFIN SANDWICH
Steps:
- 1. Toast your sliced muffin. Heat a 9 to 10-inch non-stick skillet or well-seasoned cast iron skillet over medium. Scramble the egg with the milk/water and a pinch of salt. 2. Once the skillet is hot, spray it with an ample amount of cooking spray (or melt butter in the pan or brush it with oil). Pour in the scrambled egg and immediately swirl the egg in the bottom of the pan to make an even layer, like you would for a crepe. Immediately place your cheese in the center of the egg mixture as shown. Add a few dashes of hot sauce. Once the egg is set enough to fold over onto itself with a spatula (this could take 30 seconds to 1 minute), fold each side over the middle until you have a cute little egg and cheese envelope. Let it cook for another 30 seconds, then transfer it to a plate. 3. Top each toast halve with avocado. Place the cooked egg on one side. Top with cucumber, tomato, arugula, red onion and top with your other piece of toast. Enjoy.
EGG SALAD SANDWICH WITH AVOCADO AND WATERCRESS
Steps:
- Cook the eggs 10 minutes in a saucepan of simmering water to cover. Drain, cool under cold running water, and peel. Roughly mash the eggs in a bowl with the mayonnaise, mustard, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. Spread 4 slices of toast with mayonnaise, if you like. Arrange about 1/4 of the avocado slices on each. Spread each with 1/4 of the egg salad and arrange watercress sprigs on top. Top each sandwich with another slice of toast and serve.
Tips:
- For a creamy avocado spread, mash the avocado with a fork until it is smooth and creamy.
- If you like a little spice, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the avocado spread.
- For a crunchy sandwich, use a hearty bread, such as whole-wheat or sourdough.
- If you are using a soft bread, toast it before assembling the sandwich to prevent it from getting soggy.
- To make a vegetarian sandwich, omit the bacon or ham.
- For a vegan sandwich, use vegan mayonnaise and omit the bacon or ham.
- Serve the sandwich immediately or wrap it in parchment paper and refrigerate it for later.
