Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices bacon
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 medium avocado
- 4 large lettuce leaves
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
- 2 pieces lime wedges
Instructions
Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the bacon slices until they are crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat.
In a bowl, whisk the eggs with heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
In the same skillet where the bacon was cooked, melt butter over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook, stirring gently, until scrambled and just set. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice it into thin pieces.
Assemble the tacos by taking a large lettuce leaf, placing scrambled eggs in the center, followed by crumbled bacon, sliced avocado, and a sprinkle of fresh chopped cilantro.
Serve the Keto Bacon Egg Tacos with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over before eating.
