moked Salmon and Avocado Toast with Poached Egg

Smoked Salmon & Avocado Toast with Poached Egg and Cream Cheese 🥚✨

This smoked salmon and avocado toast is a luxurious yet simple breakfast or brunch option, combining silky smoked salmon, creamy avocado, tangy cream cheese, and a perfectly poached egg on top of crisp sourdough. Each layer offers its own texture and flavour: the toast provides crunch, the cream cheese adds smoothness, the avocado brings richness, and the poached egg crowns it all with a warm, runny yolk. A touch of red onion and capers adds brightness and contrast, making every bite balanced and satisfying. It comes together quickly, making it ideal for mornings when you want something special without much effort.
