Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 6 large eggs
  • 3 slices bacon chopped
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • ½ cup shredded cheese
  • ¼ cup tomatoes chopped
  • 2 green onions thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro chopped
  • 1 small ripe avocado sliced
  • 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt or sour cream
  • 2 hash brown patties optional

Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • Baking sheet
  • 3 serving bowls
  • Whisk

Method
 

  1. Cook chopped bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 5-6 minutes. Remove bacon and set aside, leaving rendered fat in pan.
  2. If using hash browns, bake according to package instructions or air fry at 400°F for 8-10 minutes until golden and crispy.
  3. Whisk eggs with salt and pepper in a bowl. Add butter to the skillet with bacon fat. Pour in eggs and gently scramble over medium-low heat for 2-3 minutes until just set and creamy. Add shredded cheese if desired and stir until melted.
  4. Divide scrambled eggs evenly between 3 bowls. Top each bowl with crispy bacon, sliced avocado, a dollop of Greek yogurt, chopped tomatoes, green onions, and fresh cilantro.
  5. Add hash brown patties on the side if using. Serve immediately with salsa or hot sauce on the side.

Notes

Don't overcook eggs - they should remain creamy. Save bacon fat for extra flavor in eggs. Store meal prep components separately to maintain freshness. Can substitute bacon with sausage, ham, or turkey bacon.
