- 2 tsp Lemon juice
- 1 tsp Dried Parsley
- Salt (to taste)
- Pepper (to taste)
- 1 tbsp Distilled White Vinegar

Instructions
- Spread butter generously on each side of the bread and place them on a non-stick grill/flat pan over medium heat and toast it on both sides. You can also toast the bread slices in a toaster and then glaze melted butter on it.
- Fill a deep skillet halfway with water and bring it to a boil. Meanwhile, break each egg into small bowls or cups. Once the water is boiled, add 1 tbsp vinegar to the water.

- Gently take the poached eggs out of the water while shaking off the water from it and place it on a plate.
- Cut 1 avocado and add the avocado pulp in a small bowl. Mash it with a masher or back of the fork. Then add 2 tsp lemon juice, 1 tsp dried parsley, salt and pepper. Mix it well together.
- Divide the avocado mixture in equal parts and smear it on the 2 bread slices.
- Gently take the poached eggs and place one egg on each avocado toast. Sprinkle some salt, pepper and handful of roasted pine nuts(optional).
- Serve immediately!
Notes
- Don’t skip on the butter.
