Description
Bacon, Egg, and Avocado Toast – the ultimate breakfast powerhouse that combines crispy bacon, creamy avocado, and hearty eggs on toasted bread.
Ingredients
- Bread – 2 slices of whole-grain, sourdough, or your bread of choice
- Bacon – 2-4 slices, cooked until crispy
- Eggs – 2 large eggs, cooked to your desired doneness
- Avocado – 1 ripe avocado, mashed
- Salt and pepper – to taste
- Red pepper flakes – optional, for added heat
- Lemon juice – a squeeze, optional, for added flavor
- Fresh herbs – optional, such as cilantro or chives, for garnish
Instructions
1. Cook the Bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Drain the bacon on paper towels and set aside.
2. Fry the Eggs: In the same skillet, fry the eggs to your desired doneness, such as sunny-side up or over-easy.
3. Toast the Bread: Toast the slices of bread until they are golden brown.
4. Prepare the Avocado: In a bowl, mash the ripe avocado and season it with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice (if using).
5. Assemble the Toast: Spread the mashed avocado evenly on each slice of toasted bread. Top with the cooked bacon and fried egg.
6. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle with red pepper flakes and fresh herbs, if desired. Serve the Bacon, Egg, and Avocado Toast immediately, while the egg is still warm and runny.
Notes
This dish can be enjoyed on its own or paired with a fresh fruit salad, yogurt, or coffee. For a vegetarian option, substitute the bacon with sautéed mushrooms or crumbled feta cheese.
