This protein-rich avocado toast features heart-healthy fats from the avocado, protein from the eggs and a host of health benefits from the seasonal sprouts. Sprouts are seeds that have germinated and have grown into tiny plants. In general, sprouted seeds are higher in nutrients than their grown counterparts and may be easier to digest.
