- 2/3 cup water
- 1/3 cup quinoa, rinsed
- 1/4 teaspoon salt, divided
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper, divided
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup grape tomatoes, halved
- 1/4 cup loosely packed basil leaves
- 1/2 medium ripe avocado, peeled and sliced

Directions
- Place water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil; add quinoa and 1/8 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Reduce heat; cover and simmer until tender, 12-15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat a small nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Break egg into pan; reduce heat to low. Sprinkle with remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Cook until white is set and yolk begins to thicken, turning once if desired.
