Poached Egg on whole wheat english muffin with avocado sauce

Step-By-Step Directions

Step One: Poach Eggs

Step Two: Toast English Muffins

  • While the eggs are poaching, lightly toast the English Muffins in the oven. You can toast your muffins in the toaster as well, but the oven is a fast way to toast a bunch at a time!

Step Three: Prepare the Avocado Hollandaise

  • In a blender or food processor, process the avocados, Greek yogurt, cilantro, salt, and zest and juice of the lime until smooth.

Step Four: Assemble

  • Mix together the canned or homemade refried beans with chili powder and cumin powder.
  • Spread the refried beans mixture on each of the English Muffin halves.
  • Return to the oven to warm the bean mixture, about 5 minutes.
  • Top each English muffin half with a poached egg.
  • Drizzle with the avocado hollandaise, and sprinkle with feta cheese and cilantro.
  • Serve immediately.
