Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Gather all your ingredients and kitchen tools (frying pan, spatula, bowl, knife, cutting board).
- Rinse the cherry tomatoes under cold running water and pat them dry with a clean towel.
- If desired, you can slice the cherry tomatoes in halves for easier cooking and eating.
- Place a frying pan over medium heat.
- Once the pan is heated, lay the bacon strips flat in the pan without overlapping them.
- Cook the bacon for about 4–6 minutes on each side until they are crispy and golden brown. Adjust the heat as necessary to avoid burning.
- Remove the bacon strips from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess grease. Set aside.
- Depending on the amount of bacon grease in the pan, you might want to pour out some excess grease, leaving just enough to cook the eggs (about 1 tablespoon).
- Crack the two eggs into the pan. You can cook them sunny side up, over easy, or scrambled according to your preference.
- Cook until the whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your desired doneness. This should take about 2–4 minutes.
- Add the cherry tomatoes to the frying pan with the eggs during the last 1–2 minutes of cooking. Sauté them until they start to soften and blister slightly.
- If the pan is too crowded, you can cook the tomatoes separately after the eggs are done. Simply add a bit of the leftover bacon grease back into the pan and sauté the tomatoes over medium heat for about 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally until they are softened and slightly charred.
- In a serving bowl, place the cooked eggs and the crispy bacon strips.
- Add the sautéed cherry tomatoes around the eggs and bacon.
- Serve immediately while hot. Feel free to sprinkle some salt, pepper, or any other seasonings of your choice to enhance the flavors.
- Enjoy your simple yet delicious bacon and egg breakfast bowl with cherry tomatoes!
Tips:
- For a healthier option, consider using turkey bacon instead of traditional pork bacon.
- Add some spinach or kale to the bowl for extra nutrients and color.
- Sprinkle some shredded cheese on top for added flavor and creaminess.
- Use a non-stick skillet to minimize oil usage and make cleanup easier.
- Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives to enhance the flavor and presentation.
With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a satisfying and delicious breakfast that will keep you energized for the day ahead. This Bacon and Egg Breakfast Bowl with cherry tomatoes is sure to become a favorite in your morning routine.
