Ingredients

4 sourdough slices or your favorite bread
2 ripe avocados
8 ounces halloumi roughly cut into 1/3 inch slices
1 small container cherry tomatoes
4 large eggs
4 tablespoons balsamic glaze
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh oregano chopped
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350℉, slice tomatoes in half, and place on a baking sheet drizzled with olive oil and sprinkled with salt for 20-25 minutes. Work on the other steps while the tomatoes are roasting.
Bring water in a medium pot to a gentle boil. Using a slotted spoon, gently lower the eggs, one-by-one, into the boiling water. Immediately set a timer for 11 minutes, maintaining a gentle boil. 11 minutes gives you hard boiled eggs. If you’d like soft boiled eggs, cut the time by two minutes.
While the eggs are in boiling water, make a bath of ice water in a medium bowl. Once the eggs are ready to come out of the hot water, quickly transfer them into the ice water bath using a slotted spoon. Let the eggs rest in the ice water bath for about 10-15 minutes, until cooled. Remove shells.
In a non-stick pan, add a drizzle of olive oil and halloumi slices. Over medium heat, let halloumi brown on each side for about 4-5 minutes. Let the halloumi get as toasty as you’d like!
Toast bread in a toaster until golden.
In a bowl, roughly mash avocados with a fork. Spread avocado on toast. Place a few slices of warm, toasted halloumi on avocado. Add a few tomatoes on top of halloumi slices. Cut eggs in half, and place halves on top of each toast. Sprinkle with fresh oregano, and drizzle with balsamic glaze. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Serve immediately

Notes

You can use store-bought hard boiled eggs if preferred!
Don't have time to toast halloumi? Use crumbled feta instead!
Don't have time to roast tomatoes? Use fresh tomatoes instead!
