Ingredients
Scale
- 2 whole grain English muffins, split and toasted

- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
- 1/4 avocado, sliced
- 1/4 cup spinach leaves (or arugula)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Crack eggs into the skillet and cook until whites are set, about 2–3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional minute or until yolks are cooked to your desired level. Season with salt and pepper.

- Use a dairy-free cheese if you’re following a plant-based or vegan diet.
- Feel free to swap spinach for other leafy greens like kale or mixed greens.
