Hey yall!

I love getting festive for holidays or events and today is no exception. We are making REALLY EASY (emphasis on the easy) Valentine’s Day Treats!

Avocado Toast with Sriracha and a Heart egg
Ingredients:
-Slice of your favorite bread (I used a garlic cheese one)
-One small avocado
-One large egg
-Heart cutter
-Butter
Roland Sriracha (aka THE BEST sriracha in my opinion)
-Power Greens

Directions:
-Heat the butter up in a skillet over medium heat; place the heart cutter inside the pan. Then, crack the egg into the heart and let cook for a couple of minutes.
-Pour 1/4c of water into the pan, wait for it to steam, then cover the egg with a lid and let it continue to cook for about 4 minutes.
-For the avocado toast, toast your bread. (haha, duh) Then, cube up the avocado (add garlic salt & pepper) and mash it up. Spread over the toast. Place toast on top of greens.
-Decorate your plate with sriracha and enjoy!
