FUEL: Grated Egg Avocado Toast

One-Pan Meal • Vegetarian Friendly

Ingredients

  • ½ cup mayonnaise

  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce

  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

  • ¼ teaspoon chili powder

Directions

  1. Mix the Spicy Mayo: In a small bowl, combine the mayo, hot sauce, paprika, chili powder, and cayenne pepper. Taste and add pink Himalayan salt if needed.

  2. Mash the Avocado: In another bowl, scoop out the avocado, add lemon juice, and mash until well combined.
