Best Grated Egg Recipes
Grated Egg Avocado Toast
This is the OG version of the grated egg hack by Sarah Thomas. All she does is toast up some crusty bread, add slices of avocado, grate some egg on top and finish off with salt and pepper! Easy and so pretty!
Grated Egg Toast with Olive Oil
Daenlia’s Kitchen took grated egg toast one step further by adding raw onions, extra virgin olive oil and parmesan cheese. And what’s not to love about the egg and cheese combo?! The only caveat here is that since the eggs are going to be cold, you may want to avoid the cheese if you’re not a fan of it with cold foods.
Grated Egg Hashbrown Toast
Kelsey from Trade Joe’s Food Reviews tries this hack pretty much the same way, except, she eliminates the bread to use hash browns instead! If you’re a fan of potatoes, eggs and chili oil, you’ll love this recipe. Start by air-frying some store-bough hash browns, top off with some guacamole or mashed avocados, then some chili oil and enjoy!
Grated Egg Toast with Tomatoes
Dani’s Dishes does this a little differently. She starts with a nice crusty bread and toasts it well. Then slathers it with cream cheese and tops it off with fresh tomatoes, avocados and finishes it off with grated egg. While the process is no different, swapping mayo for cream cheese and adding tomatoes adds a freshness to the toast and we believe you should take advantage of the fresh summer produce to make this recipe!
Grated Egg Toast with Pickled Onions
Cooking with Thayeh makes her toast with some spicy mayo, avocados, grated eggs, pickled onions, bagel seasoning and a touch of olive oil, and we think the addition of pickled onions is brilliant. It adds a refreshing tanginess to the dish and makes it wholesome.
