Fill a wide saucepan with about 3 inches of water. Add white vinegar and bring to a gentle simmer - you should see small bubbles at the bottom, not rolling boil.
Meanwhile, toast bread in a large skillet over medium heat. Add butter to the pan and toast bread until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to plates.
Halve the avocado and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Add a squeeze of lemon juice, a pinch of sea salt, and mash with a fork to your desired consistency (leave some chunks for texture).
Crack each egg into a small ramekin or cup. Create a gentle swirl in the simmering water with a spoon. Slide eggs into the water one at a time. Poach for 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk.
Remove eggs with a slotted spoon and blot on a paper towel.
Spread mashed avocado generously on each toast. Add a dollop of cream cheese if using.
Top each toast with a poached egg. Arrange cherry tomatoes around the eggs.
Sprinkle generously with everything bagel seasoning and red pepper flakes. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil.
Top with fresh microgreens or arugula. Season with flaky salt and freshly cracked pepper.
Serve immediately - avocado toast waits for no one.
Toast the bread in a pan with butter for extra flavor - pan-toasted bread beats toaster results.
Use ripe avocados - they should yield slightly when pressed but not feel mushy.
