Ingredients

2 ripe avocados (organic recommended)

4 large eggs (organic recommended

4 cups fresh spinach leaves (organic recommended)

1 tablespoon white vinegar

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional toppings: red pepper flakes, chia seeds

Directions

Begin by carefully halving the avocados and removing the pits. Scoop out a little extra flesh from the center to create a well for the egg. This can be done using a spoon.
In a medium-sized pot, fill with water and add the white vinegar. Bring the water to a gentle simmer.
Crack each egg into a small bowl or ramekin. Gently slide the eggs, one at a time, into the simmering water. Poach for about 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk or longer if desired
While the eggs are poaching, prepare the spinach. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Place a bed of wilted spinach onto each plate. Carefully place a halved avocado on the bed of spinach.
Once the eggs are poached to your desired level, carefully remove them from the water using a slotted spoon. Gently place one poached egg into the well of each avocado half.
Sprinkle with additional salt, pepper, and optional toppings like red pepper flakes or chia seeds.

Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb, high-protein avocado and poached eggs on a bed of spinach.
