INSTRUCTIONS
1. Toast the Bread:
Toast the slices of bread until golden and crispy.
2. Prepare the Avocado:
Mash the ripe avocado in a bowl, adding a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted bread.

Bring a small pot of water to a gentle boil. Carefully lower the eggs into the water and cook for about 6-7 minutes for soft-boiled eggs with a slightly runny yolk. Once done, remove the eggs and cool them under cold running water. Peel and slice them in half.
4. Toast the Pumpkin Seeds:
In a dry skillet, toast the pumpkin seeds over medium heat for 1-2 minutes until they are golden and fragrant. Set aside.
5. Prepare the Cress Salad:
In a small bowl, toss the fresh cress leaves with ARLO argan oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
6. Assemble the Toasts:
Place the soft-boiled eggs on top of the mashed avocado toast. Sprinkle the toasted pumpkin seeds over the eggs.
