Avocado toast with egg and MEALUP Hard Italian Cheese
Jump to recipeAvocado and egg toast is ready in 10 minutes and gives you 34 g of protein per serving, with MEALUP Hard Italian Cheese sprinkled on top. A simple breakfast that looks good and comes together in minutes.
The avocado is mashed with lemon juice so it doesn't brown too quickly, then spread over a slice of warm toast. A fried egg with a runny yolk on top completes it.
MEALUP Hard Italian Cheese goes on last, over the finished toast. The warmth of the egg brings out the hard-cheese flavor just before you take a bite.

Tips
- Pick a ripe avocado: it mashes more easily and gives a creamier texture.
- No lemon? A little apple cider vinegar does the same job and keeps the avocado from browning.
- Add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes if you like a little heat.
