Crispy Egg Salad Toast with Avocado and Sriracha is the crunchy-edged, creamy-centered answer to boring lunches. In 40 minutes you’ll turn hard-boiled eggs, buttery avocado, and a quick sriracha kick into a handheld meal that tastes like diner food but costs pennies. The toast stays crisp thanks to a thin mayo layer that seals the bread before baking. Pair it with my Spicy Hot Sausage and Feta Pizza with Honey Drizzle when you want the same crunch at dinner.
