Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 slices sourdough, whole grain, or rustic bread
- 1 ripe avocado
- 4 slices crispy bacon
- 2 large eggs
Seasoning and Flavor Enhancers:
- ½ teaspoon (2.5 ml) lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon (1.25 ml) salt
- ¼ teaspoon (1.25 ml) black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon (1.25 ml) red pepper flakes (optional)
Cooking and Garnish:
- ½ teaspoon (2.5 ml) butter or olive oil
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) chopped chives or parsley
Instructions
- Transform ripe avocados into a silky, zesty spread by mashing them with a squeeze of citrus and a pinch of seasoning until smooth and creamy.
- Render bacon slices in a hot skillet, allowing them to sizzle and crisp up to golden-brown perfection, then transfer to an absorbent paper towel to eliminate excess fat.
- Crisp bread slices to a warm, golden hue using a toaster or skillet, brushing lightly with olive oil or butter for enhanced flavor and texture.
- Select your preferred egg preparation method – whether sunny-side up, over-easy, or scrambled – ensuring the yolk remains luscious and rich.
- Construct the ultimate open-faced sandwich by generously layering the velvety avocado spread across the toasted bread foundation, creating a verdant canvas.
- Strategically arrange crisp bacon fragments atop the avocado, providing a satisfying crunch and smoky undertone.
- Crown the creation with your perfectly cooked eggs, allowing the runny yolk to cascade and mingle with the creamy avocado base.
- Elevate the flavor profile by sprinkling red pepper flakes for a subtle heat, scattering fresh chives for a delicate onion essence, or dusting with additional black pepper for a zesty kick.
Notes
- Customize the avocado mash by adding diced jalapeños or minced garlic for an extra flavor kick.
- Choose different bread types like sourdough, whole wheat, or gluten-free options to suit dietary preferences.
- Cook eggs perfectly by using a non-stick pan and maintaining medium-low heat to prevent overcooking.
- Swap bacon with turkey bacon or tempeh bacon for lighter protein alternatives that still provide a delicious crunch.
