Amazing Avocado Toast

Recently I’ve been trying to find a way to incorporate more vegetables into my diet. Avocado toast is is a great breakfast. It’s filling, yummy, and healthy!

Made with whole grain toast (gluten-free if needed). avocado, poached egg, pumpkin seeds, hemp seeds, and a little Udo’s oil.

The avocado makes it creamy and packs a punch of healthy omega’s and vitamins. The egg is a complete protein! What’s great about eggs, is that even though they have a high count of dietary cholesterol, they have been shown to not directly contribute to blood plasma cholesterol. So it’s ok to have more than one egg!

Pumpkin seeds are always a favorite. I love the flavor and they are a good contribution for skin health!

Hemp seeds are another good source of omega’s. The tiny seeds don’t have much flavor so it’s easy to add to meals.

Udo’s oil is an oil made from a variety of seeds. It’s an awesome source of omega 3, 6, and 9’s. A great contributor as an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. 🙂
