Lately I have been involved in a fairly serious love affair with eggs. Poached, scrambled, hard-boiled, soft-boiled with dippy soldiers, baked, and fried. What’s so wonderful about these perfectly packaged little nutrient-bombs is that they manage to be both filling and exactly what you’d want for a quick, simple, satisfying meal – breakfast, lunch or dinner.
I’d like to share with you a take on eggs on toast that is brighter, prettier and more interesting than old-hat white bread and fried eggs. 
My Sunny Side Egg and Avocado Breakfast Pizza stars a perfectly golden-bottomed fried egg, lime-spiked avocado, snow peas shoots and pink peppercorns. A seedy, wholemeal flatbread serves as the vehicle that allows easy eating and very little washing up. Good morning!

Description
This Sunny Side Egg and Avocado Breakfast Pizza features a golden-bottomed fried egg, lime-spiked avocado, and a garnish of snow pea shoots and pink peppercorns on a crisp wholemeal flatbread.
Ingredients
- 1 wholemeal flatbread (e.g., soy, linseed, and pumpkin flatbread)
- 1 ripe avocado
- Juice of 1 freshly squeezed lime
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt, to taste
- Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon snow pea shoots
- 1 teaspoon pink peppercorns
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to 390°F (200°C).
- Brush the flatbread with a little olive oil and season with salt. Place it under the grill for about 5 minutes, or until it is crisp and golden.
- While the flatbread is grilling, scoop out the flesh of the avocado into a bowl. Add the lime juice and mash until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- In a non-stick frying pan, heat a small amount of olive oil over medium heat. Crack the egg into the pan and cook until the white is set and the yolk is still runny, about 3-4 minutes.
- Spread the mashed avocado over the crisped flatbread evenly.
- Place the fried egg on top of the avocado spread.
- Garnish with snow pea shoots and sprinkle with pink peppercorns.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your breakfast pizza!
Notes
For a crispier base, ensure the flatbread is well-toasted under the grill. Pink peppercorns add a subtle floral note; if unavailable, substitute with freshly cracked black pepper. This dish is best enjoyed immediately but can be prepared in advance by grilling the flatbread and preparing the avocado spread ahead of time.
