Avocado Toast with Tomato, Onion & Thyme

A delicious twist on avocado toast with sautéed tomatoes, red onion & fresh thyme. So easy to make...

So, this toast has an interesting backstory. We went to make an egg scramble this weekend and pulled all the veggies and herbs that we could find out of the fridge to prep. Then, went to grab the eggs. Um…no eggs. I swore I brought home eggs from the grocery store this week but apparently they never made it home!

So, without eggs, we improvised. And wouldn’t you know it was way better than the planned egg scramble. This was so good that we ate it twice this weekend — once for breakfast and once for lunch. Turned out to be a happy accident that I loved so much I thought I’d share it out today. And you really can’t beat something this easy to make. I hope you enjoy it!
