This tea sandwich is a mini version of what I usually have for breakfast most days of the week — avocado toast with an egg.

A few notes:
– I like my eggs to be a little runny so I boiled them for exactly 2 minutes and 30 seconds. For a firm yolk, boil them for 3 minutes and 15 seconds. Use a timer.
– Have a bowl with cold water ready to chill the eggs right after boiling.
– Create indents in the avocado to make sure the eggs don’t slide off. They’re pretty slippery.
– To make it a little easier to place the eggs on top of the avocado, slide them into four pieces and spread them out.
