Tips & Variations

- Spice It Up: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little kick!
- Make it Ahead: Hard-boil your eggs in advance to save time in the morning. Check out my easy method for perfect Hard Boiled Eggs here!
- Storage: This is best eaten right away, but you can store any leftover avocado in an airtight container in the fridge for a day. The lemon juice will help prevent browning.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I substitute gluten free bread for this recipe?
Absolutely! Feel free to replace the bread with your preferred gluten-free options, such as rice cakes, corn tortillas, or even sweet potato slices for a unique twist.
How can I make this ahead of time?
I would recommend making the avocado mixture and hard boiling the eggs ahead of time. You don’t want the avocado to brown too much and the taste is best when it is fresh. Then, toast and assemble when you’re ready to eat. Prepping the ingredients ahead of time will save you valuable minutes in the morning!
Can I use a different type of seasoning?
Of course! Adjust to your preferences! Everything bagel seasoning is merely a suggestion. Salt and pepper work wonderfully! You could also try other seasonings like garlic powder, onion powder, or even a sprinkle of chili flakes for added flavor.
What about other toppings?
There are SO many options! Feel free to add microgreens, fresh tomatoes, fresh herbs, or even a drizzle of balsamic glaze for added flavor. Get creative, and have FUN!
