Instructions

  1. Step 1: Toast 2 slices sourdough bread until golden and crisp, about 2 minutes per side in a toaster or on a dry skillet.
  2. Step 2: Cut 1/2 medium avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl. Mash with a fork until smooth, then stir in 1/4 tsp lemon zest and a pinch of salt.
  3. Step 3: In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 2 tbsp whole milk, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/8 tsp black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
  4. Step 4: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat until shimmering. Pour in the egg mixture and gently stir with a silicone spatula until softly set and creamy, about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Step 5: Stir in 1/4 cup fresh chives and 1/4 cup fresh parsley, then cook for 1 minute more until the herbs are wilted and fragrant.
  6. Step 6: Spread the mashed avocado mixture evenly over the toasted bread slices. Top with the herb-scrambled eggs and serve immediately.
