Delicious breakfast hacks on TikTok are a dime a dozen these days. (Raise your hand if you’re still not over baked oatmeal and “nature’s cereal.”) But you’re not alone if you’re perpetually amazed by each new TikTok remix of everyone’s go-to breakfast staple, toast.
By combining all three macronutrients in one meal, you'll feel satiated and will avoid an energy crash, says Guzak. "Protein and fat are digested slowly, while carbs are generally passed through the digestive tract more rapidly," she says. "When eaten in conjunction digestion is prolonged, which provides more lasting energy and keeps you feeling full for longer."
This is also an easily adaptable, versatile pick depending on what toppings you have on hand along with the egg and avocado, notes Guzak. Some of her recs include roasted tomatoes for a burst of flavor, phytonutrients, and fiber; smoked salmon (or any fish) for a solid source of lean protein; antioxidant-rich arugula for a fresh, peppery flavor; nutritional yeast for a cheesy, nutty flavor; radishes for crunch, vitamin C, and antioxidants; green onions; fresh cilantro or parsley; lemon or lime juice; paprika, cayenne, or garlic powder; or a drizzle of sriracha or hot sauce for a little kick.
As for swaps, hummus makes a great substitute for Kewpie mayo if you don’t have it on hand or don’t love mayo, and that it adds fiber and flavor, notes Guzak. Gluten-free bread also works, or rice cakes, hash brown patties, or sweet potato toast as a base, she adds. In any case, no matter how you (ahem) slice it, you’ll probably want to make this TikTok toast again and again.
