Ingredients

Ingredient Notes & Substitutions

If you don’t have fresh tomatoes, canned chopped tomatoes work just as well — just let them simmer a little longer to thicken.
No avocado? You can use hummus or even cream cheese for a similar creamy texture.
If you like it spicier, add chili flakes or a bit of hot sauce to the tomato base.
Any type of bread works here — sourdough, whole grain, or even pita.

Instructions

  1. Toast the bread until golden and crisp, then set aside.
  2. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat.
  3. Add the onion and cook for 3–4 minutes until soft and slightly golden.
  4. Stir in the garlic and chili, cooking for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  5. Add the tomatoes, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  6. Let the mixture simmer for 5–6 minutes until it thickens into a rich sauce.
  7. Use a spoon to make small wells in the sauce and crack the eggs into them.
  8. Lower the heat, cover, and cook for 4–5 minutes until the egg whites are set.
  9. Cook longer if you prefer firmer yolks.
  10. Mash the avocado with lemon juice and a pinch of salt.
  11. Spread it over the toasted bread.
  12. Serve the tomato eggs warm with the avocado toast on the side.
