My Go-To 5-Minute Breakfast

Breakfast is crucial, but when you love to sleep in like I do, mornings don’t always allow time for an elaborate meal. Sure, a quick bowl of cereal can fill the gap, but it doesn’t keep me full for long. Thankfully, on busy mornings, my go-to 5-minute breakfast—avocado toast with a twist—never lets me down.

How to Prepare My Quick and Delicious 5-Minute Avocado Toast

Ingredients

• Avocados: I get the 6-count bag so it can last me about a week.
• Bagels: I love a good plain bagel so this is how I incorporate it into my mornings!
• Hash Brown Patties: The 20-count pack typically lasts me a while. 
• Cream Cheese: Avocado and cream cheese just go together so well!
• Everything Bagel Seasoning: While the Trader Joe’s one will always have my heart, Stonemill’s version has quickly become another favorite.

Instructions

1. Start by toasting two hash browns. I do this first so they can cool slightly while I work on the rest of the breakfast. While the hash browns toast, cut the avocado in half. Remove the pit, then slice the avocado into strips.
2. Once the hash browns are toasted, take them out and pop the bagel in the toaster. I prefer it lightly toasted, not too crispy.
3. When the bagel is ready, spread cream cheese on both halves. Sprinkle a bit of everything bagel seasoning on top, then place the hash browns on each slice.
4. Top the hash browns with your avocado slices and finish with a little extra everything bagel seasoning.

And that’s it! This was pretty much the only meal I ate during my senior year of college, and I’m sure it’ll quickly become your new favorite too.
