Ingredients
- 2 slices Whole grain bread
- 2 slices Turkey bacon, low sodium
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 Avocado
- 0.5 cup Spinach leaves, fresh
- 0.5 small Tomato
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 0.125 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 2
Cook the turkey bacon slices in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are crispy. Remove and place on a paper towel to drain any excess fat.
Step 3
While the bacon is cooking, toast the slices of whole grain bread until golden brown using a toaster or oven grill.
Step 4
Slice the avocado and tomato thinly, and set aside.
Step 5
In the same skillet used for the bacon, add 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Crack the egg into the skillet, season with salt and black pepper. Cook the egg to your desired doneness, about 2-3 minutes for a slightly runny yolk.
Step 6
Assemble the sandwich: Place one slice of the toasted bread on a plate, layer with fresh spinach leaves, followed by the slices of turkey bacon.
Step 7
Top the bacon with the cooked egg, then layer on the avocado and tomato slices.
Step 8
Finish with the second slice of toasted bread. Press down gently to combine the sandwich.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy your heart-healthy bacon and egg sandwich.
