You’ll love this delicious healthy breakfast sandwich recipe! This is the perfect savory breakfast idea: a healthy avocado egg sandwich.

Seriously, you’ll want to make this easy egg sandwich every single morning! And you can, because it takes about 5-10 minutes and the ingredients are easy to find.

I’ve been making this vegetarian sandwich for breakfast for quite a while now, occasionally switching up some of the ingredients to use whatever I have (is in season) and it never, EVER, disappoints. It seriously is the best breakfast ever. And it’s all so easy to put together.

Healthy Avocado Egg Breakfast Sandwich Ingredients

Here’s what you need:

2 slices of bread. If you’re gluten free or keto – use the type of bread that you like and know works well for grilled cheese sandwiches. I used whole grain bread to make the recipe originally, but I now use gluten-free bread, since I’ve started a gluten-free diet.
Vegetables. A few leaves of spinach, some tomato and don’t forget to add the garlic. You will not regret it!
A fried egg. I like to fry my egg on both sides, because if I have a runny egg, I will also have paranoia, so fried on both sides for me. Prep your eggs whichever way you like – scrambled or hard-boiled will work too!
Something pickled. This is optional, but I love the flavor it adds – you can use pickled jalapenos or pickles or whatever you like.
Mozzarella cheese. Shredded mozzarella cheese is optional, but also amazing in here.
Avocado. We’ll use the avocado as the spread for this delicious avocado egg sandwich.

How To Make This Avocado Egg Breakfast Sandwich

Making this vegetarian sandwich for breakfast should not take a long time. Around 10 minutes is the time I usually need for all of the following to happen:

Fry your egg on both sides or prepare it whichever way you like. If you hard boil some eggs, it can be super easy to make this sandwich over the next few days too.
Top one slice of the bread with the avocado and minced garlic and mash the avocado, spreading it over the slice of bread.
Put the egg on top, then the pickles (or pickled jalapenos), tomato slices, spinach and the mozzarella cheese.
Top everything with the other slice of bread and toast on both sides until golden brown in a heated skillet. I recommend adding some olive oil to the skillet and using a non-stick type of pan.
Slice in the middle and enjoy!

Tips To Make The Best Healthy Sandwich For Breakfast

Use fresh ingredients. I highly, highly recommend using some fresh produce in your sandwiches. You want to start your day with some fruits and vegetables. They’re rich in vitamins and minerals and taste really great in sandwiches and breakfast burritos.

Combine different flavors. You want to have the best of all worlds here. That’s why I love the garlic and the pickled foods in the sandwich. It pairs beautifully with the other flavors.

Toast. It’s just the best! Toast your sandwich once assembled in a pan or on the grill until golden brown, so delicious!
