Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 0.5 cup Cheddar cheese
- 1 small Avocado
- 4 slices Cooked bacon
- 4 large Romaine lettuce leaves
- 2 tablespoons Salsa or hot sauce
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a bowl and add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Whisk them together until well combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Stir gently with a spatula, keeping the eggs moving so they cook evenly and form soft scrambled eggs.
Once the eggs are just set and still slightly creamy, sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the top. Turn off the heat and let the residual warmth melt the cheese.
Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl. Mash it lightly with a fork.
Lay the romaine lettuce leaves flat and divide the mashed avocado evenly onto each leaf.
Spoon the scrambled eggs with melted cheese onto the avocado-topped lettuce leaves.
Crumble the cooked bacon over the eggs on each lettuce taco.
Top each taco with a dollop of salsa or a drizzle of hot sauce, as preferred.
Fold the lettuce leaves like tacos and serve immediately for a delightful low-carb breakfast.
