Ingredients
  

For the Toast
  • 4 slices whole grain bread
For the Topping
  • 12 quail eggs
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives

Equipment

  • Skillet
  • Small bowl

Method
 

  1. Toast the bread slices until golden and crisp.
  2. While the bread toasts, bring a small skillet to medium heat and add olive oil. Crack quail eggs carefully into the pan and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until whites are set and yolks are still slightly soft.
  3. In a small bowl, mash the avocado with lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until mostly smooth.
  4. Spread the avocado mixture evenly over each slice of toast.
  5. Top each toast with 3 cooked quail eggs.
  6. Finish with chopped chives and an extra pinch of salt and black pepper if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

For meal prep, prepare the avocado mixture fresh to prevent browning and cook eggs just before serving for best texture.
