Smashed avo is an absolute brunch favouirte now, found in every health café I visit worldwide. I have put together a quick, easy, super healthy version for you to cook at home in under 15 mins.

I like to season mine with a splash of turmeric, or cayenne pepper. Both spices are really good for inflammation and digestion.

Ingredients

1 avocado

½ lemon or lime

Nutritional yeast (optional)

Salt and pepper

4-6 asparagus stems

Coconut oil

1 clove garlic

Cayenne powder

Turmeric powder

Method:

1. Grab a bowl and throw in one soft scooped-out avocado.

2. Add a generous splash of lemon juice or lime before mashing

3. Season well with salt and pepper and I highly recommend adding a little nutritional yeast. It's an unappealing name for a fantastic ingredient. It has a mild cheesy/nutty flavour and is super creamy on avocado. It is also one of the only ingredients in the world that has high b12 vitamins.

4. Add 1 Tbsp of coconut oil to a frying pan on high heat.

5. Fry some trimmed asparagus, lowering the heat gradually

6. Add a pinch of salt and a clove of crushed garlic. Move the asparagus until it browns and softens a little

7. Toast up your favourite bread, I recommend rye, sunflower or charcoal bread.

8. Plate up with your favourite salad leaves, adding a splash of balsamic vinegar.

9. Boiling your eggs to perfection- Mia’s Top Tips

Main thing: room temperature eggs. 

To a pot of rapidly boiling water. Add some salt. Then add the eggs. Put a timer on for four minutes. After the timer goes off, plunge the eggs into a bowl cold water to stop them cooking. If you don’t like runny eggs then wait another 40 seconds to a minute. 

 

When ready, peel the eggs, cut in half and season. You should have the perfect soft boiled egg.

 

Sprinkle the plate with cayenne/turmeric/nutritional yeast and serve.
