Ingredients
- 4 patties sausage patties
- 4 large eggs
- 1 large avocado
- 8 leaves lettuce leaves
- 60 grams cheddar cheese
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Step 2
Once the skillet is hot, add the sausage patties and cook them for 4-5 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and browned. Remove them from the skillet and set aside on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess fat.
Step 3
In a bowl, whisk the eggs together with salt and black pepper.
Step 4
Wipe the skillet clean and place it back on medium heat.
Step 5
Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet to make an omelet-style egg patty. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the edges start to set, then gently flip and cook for another 2 minutes. Divide the cooked eggs into four portions.
Step 6
Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork until smooth, adding a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
Step 7
To assemble the sandwich, place a lettuce leaf on a plate, add one sausage patty, top with a portion of scrambled eggs, a thin slice of cheddar cheese, and a generous spoonful of mashed avocado.
Step 8
Place another lettuce leaf on top to form a sandwich.
Step 9
Repeat the steps to make a total of four sandwiches.
Step 10
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb breakfast sandwich!
