Creamy Avocado Toast With Bacon & Egg

Load up on this delicious protein-packed tartine for an easy go-to breakfast or lunch.

The first time I tried avocado toast, I completely understood the Instagram-obsession and why Australia had an avocado shortage. It’s nutrient-rich, delicious and with very little prep work, what’s not to love? The secret to this recipe is the creamy guacamole with avocado, cream cheese, chives & a drizzle of lemon juice. Smooth the guacamole over toasted rustic bread, add crispy bacon and a perfectly cooked egg for a delicious & filling breakfast or lunch.
