Simple Avocado Toast

1. 1

   Make the mashed avocado: remove the skin and pits of the avocados. Spoon the flesh into a bowl and gently mash with a fork. Add lemon juice and season with salt and pepper to taste. Chill until ready to serve.

2. 2

   Toast three slick slices of buttered bread in whatever way you prefer. I don't have a toaster, so I melt butter in a skillet and toast the bread on each side until crispy. You may also choose to toast your bread in an oven.

3. 3

   Heat a small amount of butter in a skillet. Crack the eggs into the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Once the whites are mostly set, add a touch of water and cover to allow the yolks to set up. Cook until yolks are velvety, about 45 seconds.

4. 4

   Serve: Spoon the avocado mixture over the toasted bread and top with an egg. Sprinkle with a bit of crushed red pepper.
