Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Whole milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 4 Bacon strips
- 2 Bread slices
- 1 Bell pepper (any color)
- 1 cup Spinach leaves
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
1. Crack the eggs into a small bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well combined and set aside.
2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon strips and cook for 3-5 minutes per side or until crispy. Transfer the cooked bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease. Remove excess grease from the skillet, leaving about 1 tablespoon.
3. Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet, lower the heat to medium-low, and pour in the whisked eggs. Gently stir with a spatula, pushing the eggs from the outer edges to the center, until they are softly scrambled. Remove from heat and set aside.
4. Heat a second skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and the chopped bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened. Add the spinach leaves and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until wilted. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
5. Toast the bread slices until golden brown. Spread 1 tablespoon of butter evenly over the toast while still warm.
6. Plate the scrambled eggs, sautéed vegetables, crispy bacon, and buttered toast. Serve immediately for a hearty breakfast.
