Ingredients
- 4 pieces Vegetarian bacon strips
- 2 Eggs
- 2 slices Cheddar cheese
- 2 slices Whole grain bread
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 small, sliced Tomato
- 2 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 0.5 Avocado
Directions
Step 1
Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the vegetarian bacon strips and cook according to the package instructions, usually about 2-3 minutes on each side, until slightly crisp. Remove and set aside.
Step 3
In the same frying pan, add half of the butter.
Step 4
Crack the eggs into the pan, season with salt and black pepper, and cook to your liking. For sunny side up, allow the egg whites to set while the yolk remains runny, about 3 minutes.
Step 5
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each egg while still in the pan to melt slightly.
Step 6
Meanwhile, toast the bread slices. You may use a toaster or toast them lightly in another pan.
Step 7
Spread the remaining butter on one side of each toasted slice of whole grain bread.
Step 8
To assemble the sandwich, top one slice of toasted buttered bread with lettuce, tomato slices, cooked vegetarian bacon, one cheesy egg, and sliced avocado.
Step 9
Place the second slice of bread on top, buttered side down, to complete the sandwich.
Step 10
Cut each sandwich in half if desired and serve immediately.
