A hearty morning stack with avocado, crispy bacon, melty cheese, and a perfectly cooked egg on toasted bread.
# What You Need:
→ Breads and Spreads
01 - 4 slices thick-cut bread (sourdough, whole wheat, or brioche)
02 - 1 tablespoon butter or olive oil (for toasting)
→ Proteins
03 - 4 slices bacon (or turkey bacon for alternative)
04 - 2 large eggs
→ Dairy
05 - 2 slices cheddar cheese (or Swiss, American, or preferred cheese)
→ Vegetables
06 - 1 ripe avocado, sliced
07 - 1 small tomato, sliced (optional)
08 - 1 handful baby spinach or arugula (optional)
→ Seasonings
09 - Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
# How-To Steps:
01 - Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 5–6 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
02 - Wipe the skillet and melt half the butter. Toast the bread slices until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Set aside.
03 - In the same skillet, add remaining butter if needed and fry eggs to your preference (sunny side up, over-easy, or scrambled). Season with salt and pepper.
04 - While eggs cook, layer one slice of cheese on two of the toasted bread slices so it melts slightly from the breads heat.
05 - Top each cheese-topped slice with 2 bacon strips, sliced avocado, tomato, and spinach or arugula if using.
06 - Place a cooked egg on each stack, then crown with the remaining toasted bread slices.
07 - Serve immediately, optionally cutting in half for easier eating.
