This morning we’re combining some of our favorite things for breakfast. Therefore, it’s time for a Bacon and Egg Avocado! A well-balanced healthy breakfast is really important. Avocados contain a lot of health benefits. They are full of nutrients like vitamins and potassium! Also they have a lot of beneficial fats your body needs. Eggs provide protein and nutrients also. Similarly, bacon even has useful nutrients! Garrett Valley Farms bacon is made all-natural. Therefore it is free of antibiotics or preservatives.
Mornings can be hectic, so we know your family needs a way to jump start your day. Health is important but so is taste! This recipe is good for you, but above all it is delicious! If you like avocados then Bacon and Egg Avocados are perfect for you!
Recipe Tips:
For an even healthier option, try using Garrett Valley Farms sugar free or turkey bacon varieties. It contains less fat than classic bacon, but still has a great flavor!
Try cooking your bacon in the oven! A lot of people cook bacon on a frying pan, which can get messy. Instead, place a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet (line your baking sheet with foil to make clean up even easier). Place bacon on the wire rim and cook on 400°F for about 15 minutes. Take it out of the oven sooner or later depending on how you like your bacon! This is a great way to cook a lot of bacon without the hassle.
This recipe calls for egg yolks. If you prefer egg whites, or the whole egg, feel free to adjust. Sometimes, the egg whites don’t stay in the avocado as easily as the egg yolks. Try creating rings out of foil to place underneath the avocado so the liquid will remain steady while cooking!
