Cooking a delicious and nutritious breakfast doesn't get much easier than with this Bacon, Egg, and Avocado Scramble. Combining the savory flavor of bacon with the creamy texture of avocado and the rich taste of eggs, this scramble is perfect for a satisfying start to your day.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Bacon: Cut the bacon strips into small pieces.
- Eggs: Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them together with the egg whites until well combined.
- Avocado: Scoop out the avocado and cut it into small cubes.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Add the bacon pieces to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are crispy and browned, about 5-7 minutes.
- Once cooked, use a slotted spoon to transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease. Leave a bit of the bacon grease in the skillet for added flavor.
- Reduce the skillet heat to medium-low.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the remaining bacon grease. Allow the eggs to sit for a few seconds, then gently scramble them using a spatula.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the cooked bacon pieces back into the skillet with the eggs.
- Gently fold in the avocado cubes, being careful not to mash them.
- Continue to cook the scramble until the eggs are fully set but still soft, about another 1-2 minutes.
- Remove the skillet from the heat.
- Plate the bacon, egg, and avocado scramble immediately.
- Optionally, garnish with some freshly ground black pepper or a sprinkle of chopped herbs like chives or parsley.
Tips:
- For crispier bacon, cook the strips on medium-high heat until they reach your desired level of crispiness before adding the eggs.
- If you prefer a more creamy texture, don't overcook your eggs. Keep them slightly runny and mix them with the avocado just before serving.
- Add a pinch of salt and pepper to enhance the flavors, or sprinkle some hot sauce for an extra kick.
- Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives to add a burst of color and flavor.
- Serve the scramble on top of whole-grain toast or alongside a fresh salad for a complete meal.
