Ingredients

• 4 slices Vegetarian ham slices
• 4 pieces Large eggs
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 4 slices Whole grain bread
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 1 piece Avocado
• 8 pieces Cherry tomatoes

Directions

Step 1

Begin by heating 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the vegetarian ham slices to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are lightly browned and heated through. Transfer to a plate and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and reduce the heat to low.

Step 4

Crack the eggs into the skillet carefully, ensuring they do not break. Cook until the whites are set and the yolks reach your desired level of doneness, about 4-5 minutes for runny yolks.

Step 5

While the eggs are cooking, toast the whole grain bread slices in a toaster until golden brown.

Step 6

Butter each slice of toast with 1/2 tablespoon of butter immediately after toasting.

Step 7

Season the eggs with salt and ground black pepper to taste.

Step 8

Arrange the buttered toast on two plates, and top each slice with one piece of vegetarian ham and one egg.

Step 9

Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Slice into thin strips.

Step 10

Halve the cherry tomatoes.

Step 11

Gently arrange avocado slices and halved cherry tomatoes on the side of each plate.

Step 12

Sprinkle fresh parsley over the entire dish for a fragrant, fresh finish.
