My favorite english muffins are from the brand Ezekiel 4:9. They are made with great ingredients, minimally processed and so delicious! I usually get the 7-Sprouted Grains English Muffins, but there are so many different kinds! Dave’s Killer Bread also has amazing english muffins as well!
I love any food with avocado because not only is it tasty, but it is so good for you! Avocados are filled with omega 3 fatty acids, which prevent inflammation. There has been lots of beneficial research on the importance of omega 3 fatty acids.
Unfortunately, in the US most people don’t get enough omega 3 fatty acids; however, avocados provide a great source of Omega 3s to fuel your body with healthy fats!
If you’re not a huge fan of avocado, add everything seasoning, salt, pepper, tomato, eggs, and balsamic glaze to minimize the taste!
I think this combination is so delicious and will make you love breakfast food!
This recipe is very versatile and can be made with so many combinations!
Here are some of my favorites:
- Cream Cheese + Tomato
- Cottage Cheese + Cucumber
- Peanut Butter + Banana
- Almond Butter + Raspberries

Avocado & Egg Ingredients & Tips
English Muffins: You need one english muffin! Try to look for minimally processed brands with good ingredients, my favorites are Ezekiel 4:9 and Dave’s Killer Bread!
Substitutions: Any type of bread or bagel
Avocado: Try to look for organic for full health benefits. Avocados come in large and small (I prefer the large because they have a better consistency). I usually use 1 full small one or half of a large one for this recipe!
Substitutions: Cream cheese or cottage cheese
Tomato: Completely optional but adds more flavor!
Substitutions: Cucumber
Egg: I use 2 eggs! You can make them whatever way you like (my favorite is over easy) some great options are hard boiled, scrambled, or sunny side up! You can also use just egg whites if you don’t like the yokes or just want a lower calorie option!
Substitutions: Turkey bacon, regular bacon, sausage, turkey sausage
Balsamic glaze: This is optional, but adds tasty flavor! My favorite brand is Trader Joe’s Balsamic Glaze!
Substitutions: Buffalo sauce, hot sauce, or balsamic vinegar
Seasonings I Use:
- Salt
- Pepper
- Everything Bagel Seasoning
