Ingredients

Scale

Sandwich Base

  • 2 pieces English Muffins (whole grain recommended)
  • 1 tablespoon Butter (for toasting muffins)

Eggs

  • 4 large Eggs (for fluffiest scramble)
  • 2 tablespoons Milk (omit for dairy-free)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper

Avocado Spread

  • 1 large Avocado (sprinkle with lemon juice)
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice (to prevent browning)

Protein and Cheese

  • 4 slices Bacon (or vegetarian bacon)
  • 2 slices Cheddar Cheese (or plant-based alternative)

Optional Fresh Additions

  • 1 medium Tomato (optional)
  • 1 cup Spinach (or other greens)


Instructions

  1. Preparation Steps: Gather and prepare all ingredients to ensure smooth cooking and assembly.
  2. Crisp the Bacon: Cook the bacon in a dry skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Once cooked, transfer the bacon to paper towels to drain excess grease.
  3. Toast Muffins: Toast the English muffins until golden brown, roughly 3-5 minutes. After toasting, spread butter lightly on each muffin half for enhanced flavor.
  4. Scramble Eggs: In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until combined. Cook the mixture in a skillet over medium-low heat, stirring gently, until just set but still soft, about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Prepare Avocado: In a small bowl, mash the avocado lightly with lemon juice to create a creamy, flavorful spread that will prevent browning.
  6. Assemble Sandwiches: On the bottom half of each toasted muffin, layer scrambled eggs, a slice of cheddar cheese, crispy bacon, and the avocado spread. Add slices of tomato and spinach leaves if desired for freshness and extra nutrients.
  7. Serve Warm: Place the top half of the muffin on each sandwich. Serve immediately to enjoy the sandwich warm and melty.

Notes

  • You can substitute vegetarian or plant-based bacon and cheese to make the sandwich vegetarian.
  • Omit milk from eggs to make it dairy-free.
  • Adding fresh tomato and spinach is optional but adds great flavor and nutrition.
  • For extra tang, add a dash of hot sauce or mustard to taste.
  • The recipe can be doubled easily to serve more people.
