Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground pork
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon dried sage
- 4 large eggs
- 8 romaine or iceberg lettuce leaves
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil (such as coconut or avocado)
Instructions
In a bowl, combine the ground pork with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried sage. Mix until the seasoning is evenly distributed throughout the pork.
Form the seasoned pork into 4 equal-sized patties.
Heat 1 tablespoon of cooking oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the sausage patties to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes per side or until fully cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). Once cooked, remove patties from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of cooking oil.
Crack the eggs into the skillet, and cook to your liking. For a sunny-side-up egg, cook for about 3 minutes or until the whites are set.
To assemble each sandwich: Place one sausage patty onto a lettuce leaf, top with a cooked egg, slices of avocado, and tomato. Cover with another lettuce leaf.
Repeat the assembly process for the remaining sandwiches.
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy, Paleo-friendly breakfast sandwich.
