Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground pork
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried sage
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 4 large Eggs
- 8 leaves Butter lettuce leaves
- 1 large Avocado
- 1 large Tomato
- 1 cup Fresh spinach
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, garlic powder, onion powder, dried sage, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix well to combine the seasonings throughout the meat.
Divide the meat mixture into 8 equal parts and shape each part into a patty, making sure they're a bit larger around than the eggs as they will shrink slightly during cooking.
Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage patties to the skillet and cook for approximately 3-4 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and browned. Remove the patties from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of coconut oil if necessary, and crack the eggs into the pan. Cook the eggs to your preference, be it sunny side up, over easy, or well done. Once cooked, remove them from the pan and set aside.
Slice the tomato into thin rounds and peel, pit, and slice the avocado.
To assemble each sandwich, start with one large butter lettuce leaf, lay down one sausage patty, top with an egg, add a couple of slices of avocado and tomato, and finish with a handful of fresh spinach.
Top with another butter lettuce leaf and serve immediately.
