Ingredients

For the Perfect Scrambled Eggs:

  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 Tbsp 14g extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp 3g minced fresh chives
  • 1 tsp 1g minced fresh dill
  • Pinch of freshly ground black pepper

For the Caper-Avocado Mash:

  • ½ medium ripe avocado approx. 68g flesh, diced
  • 1 ½ tsp 7.5ml fresh lemon juice
  • ½ tsp 2g capers, rinsed and roughly chopped
  • Pinch of freshly ground black pepper

For Assembly:

  • 2 large slices of your preferred bread sourdough, whole wheat, or pumpernickel recommended, approx. 76g total
  • 2 oz 56.7g thinly sliced smoked salmon
  • 1 ½ tsp minced fresh chives for garnish
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste (optional garnish)

Instructions

  • Step 1: Prepare the Perfect Scrambled Eggs: In a medium bowl, lightly beat the eggs with 1 tablespoon minced fresh chives, the dill, and a pinch of black pepper (no added salt). Warm the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over low to medium-low heat until just shimmering. Pour in the eggs and cook gently, sweeping a silicone spatula slowly across the pan to form large, soft curds. Cook 3–5 minutes until 70–75% set (still glossy and slightly loose), then remove from heat; the residual heat will finish the eggs. Cover to keep warm.
  • Step 2: Create the Caper-Avocado Mash & Toast the Bread: Toast the bread to your desired crispness. In a small bowl, combine diced avocado, lemon juice, and chopped, well-rinsed capers. Mash to your preferred texture; season with black pepper to taste (no added salt).
  • Step 3: Assemble Your Ultimate Toast: Spread the avocado mash over the toast, spoon the warm scrambled eggs on top, then layer the smoked salmon. Garnish with the remaining chives and a grind of black pepper if desired. Serve immediately.
