Tofu offers a plant-based option while being cost-effective.

Start by preparing the poached eggs. Add a little vinegar to the water to help the egg whites hold together.

Crack the eggs into the water and poach them until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny.

While the eggs are poaching, cut the avocado in half and twist the halves in opposite directions to separate them.

Carefully remove the pit from the avocado using the back of a knife and knock it off with your thumb.

Slice the avocado into diamonds or squares while it's still in the skin.

Scoop the avocado into a bowl and mash it slightly to create an avocado relish.

Add chopped cilantro, scallions, lime zest, and a pinch of salt to the bowl with the avocado and mix together.

Toast the bread until golden brown.

Once the eggs are poached, place them on top of the toasted bread.

Drizzle hot sauce over the poached eggs before serving.
