Ingredients
  

2 medium-sized sweet potatoes

4 large eggs

1 ripe avocado

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish

Red pepper flakes (optional, for a spicy kick)

Lemon juice (for seasoning the avocado)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes thoroughly. Slice them into 1/2-inch thick slices. You can choose to keep the skin on for added texture and nutrients.

      Roast the Sweet Potatoes: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the sweet potato slices in a single layer. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly. Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and slightly crispy on the edges.

        Cook the Eggs: While the sweet potatoes are roasting, prepare the eggs. You can either poach, fry, or scramble the eggs based on your preference. For poached eggs, bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl, and then gently slide them into the simmering water. Cook for about 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk, or longer for firmer yolks. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.

          Avocado Mash: In a small bowl, mash the ripe avocado with a fork. Add a squeeze of lemon juice and season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix until smooth and creamy.

            Assemble the Toasts: Once the sweet potato slices are roasted, remove them from the oven. Spread a generous amount of the avocado mash on each slice. Top with a cooked egg and sprinkle with fresh cilantro or parsley. If you like heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes.

              Serve: Arrange the toasts on a serving platter. Enjoy immediately while the sweet potato is still warm and the egg is perfectly runny!
