This recipe combines crispy bacon, savory Vienna sausage, creamy Monterey cheese, and perfectly cooked eggs to create a satisfying and low-carb meal."}

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Bacon:
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Once the skillet is hot, add the 4 strips of bacon.
- Cook the bacon until it reaches your desired level of crispiness, turning occasionally for even cooking. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
- Once cooked, remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
2. Cook the Vienna Sausage:
- Drain and slice the Vienna sausages into even pieces.
- Using the same skillet with the leftover bacon grease, add the sausages.
- Cook the sausage on medium heat until it’s lightly browned, approximately 3-4 minutes.
- Remove the sausage from the skillet and set it aside.
3. Prepare the Eggs:
- In a small bowl, beat the 2 eggs until well combined.
- Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the same skillet and allow it to melt over medium heat.
- Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet. Cook the eggs while gently stirring with a spatula, forming soft curds.
- Cook until the eggs are just set but still slightly runny (or to your desired consistency), around 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Assemble the Burger:
- Lower the heat and place the 2 oz of Monterey cheese onto the eggs while they're still in the skillet. Allow the cheese to melt slightly, which should take about 1 minute.
- Pile the cooked Vienna sausage pieces on top of the eggs and cheese.
- Lay the bacon strips over the sausages.
5. Final Touches:
- Using a spatula, carefully lift the entire assembly from the skillet and place it onto a plate.
- If desired, you can use large lettuce leaves as a wrap or serve as is for a low-carb, delicious breakfast.
