Serving & Storage
Serve the avocado egg toast immediately while the toast is crisp and the egg is warm. For extra flavour, serve with fresh tomatoes, cucumber, or a small side salad.
Avocado toast is best eaten fresh. If you have leftover mashed avocado, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day. A little lemon juice can help reduce browning.
