an egg
five grams of butter
half a clove of clean garlic
salt, paprika, two or three drops of lemon juice, a hint of mustard (optional)

Clean the avocado, weigh 45 grams of ripe pulp and mash it with the rembi of a fork adding a few drops of lemon (two-three are enough, do not squeeze half as it alters the flavor of the avocado cream), salt, paprika or pepper and a pinch of mustard. In the meantime, set aside and toast the slice of wholemeal bread. Once toasted, rub it on one side with half a clove of garlic while it is still hot with a quick pass. In a small pan, put five grams of butter (about a teaspoon), heat it and shell an egg, then cover with a lid and cook for 6-7 minutes, so as to have the egg white cooked and the yolk soft. Salt it lightly and prepare your avocado toast:
– place the toasted and flavored wholemeal bread on a plate, spread the avocado cream on it and place the freshly cooked egg on top. Serve it immediately, with the hot egg and warm bread, accompanied by a green salad with a teaspoon of oil, for a total of 285 calories for your quick lunch.
