Begin by preparing your vegetables and other components. Thinly slice the tomato and red onion. Set aside.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Mash the avocado lightly with a fork and season it with salt and black pepper.
In a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of avocado oil. Once hot, add the bacon slices and cook until crispy, turning occasionally, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the bacon and let it drain on a plate lined with paper towels.
Carefully remove excess oil from the skillet, leaving about 1 tablespoon in the skillet, or add more if necessary.
Reduce the heat to medium-low, then gently crack the eggs into the skillet. Cook until the whites are set but the yolk is still runny, about 3-4 minutes. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to the eggs.
To assemble the sandwich, lay the lettuce leaves flat on a plate. Spread the mashed avocado evenly across the leaves. Arrange the tomato slices and red onion rings over the avocado.
Place the crispy bacon slices on top of the vegetables, followed by the fried eggs.
Fold the lettuce leaves over to enclose the filling, securing it as needed.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Whole30 Classic Fried Egg Sandwich.
