Ingredients
- 2 lices of toasted bread
- 1 tbsp hummus
- 1 handful arugula
- 1 egg
- 6 Thinly sliced cucumbers
- ¼ bell pepper
- ½ avocado
- 1 tbsp herb feta spread
Instructions
COOK THE EGG
- To make an over-medium egg, first heat a skillet of medium heat. Once heated, add a drizzle of olive oil and crack 1-2 eggs (depending on how hungry you are) and cook on each side for about 1-2 minutes. I like my yolk a little runny. If you do not like a runny yolk, continue to cook your egg for about 3 minutes on each side. Now let's toast the bread.
Cup of Yum
TOAST THE BREAD
- Place two slices of bread in your toaster to toast.
FETA SPREAD/SMEAR
- On a plate or in a bowl, add about 1/3 cup of double cream or soft feta Bulgarian or Turkish cheese. Do not use dried Greek cheese, it will not work.
- Add dried oregano and dried mint to the cheese and mix until a smooth and creamy spread forms.
PUT IT ALL TOGETHER
- First, smear the first slice of bread with hummus.
- Second, add arugula.
- Third, top the arugula with the egg(s).
- Fourth, top the egg(s) with thinly sliced cucumber.
- Fifth, top the cucumber with thinly sliced bell pepper.
- Sixth, top the bell pepper with creamy avocado.
- Finally, smear the last toasted bread with the feta spread and top the sandwich and take a huge bite! Enjoy!
