Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices sourdough bread
- 1 whole avocado
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 slices bacon
- 2 whole eggs
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 cup arugula
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Remove the bacon from the skillet and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.
While the bacon cooks, toast the sourdough bread slices until golden brown. Set aside.
In a small bowl, mash the avocado and mix in the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
Once the bacon is done, carefully wipe the skillet clean with a paper towel. Melt the unsalted butter in the skillet over low heat.
Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook sunny-side-up to your preferred doneness, about 2-3 minutes, or until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
Assemble the sandwiches: Spread the mashed avocado evenly over each slice of toasted sourdough bread. Top with arugula, 2 slices of bacon per sandwich, and a sunny-side-up egg.
Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the arugula for extra flavor, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your open-faced breakfast sandwiches for two!
