A hearty morning stack with avocado, crispy bacon, melted cheese, and a perfectly cooked egg on toasted bread.
# What You'll Need:
→ Bread & 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 as 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 Make It:
01 - Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, approximately 5 to 6 minutes, then drain on paper towels.
02 - Wipe the skillet clean, melt half the butter, and toast bread slices until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Set aside.
03 - Add remaining butter if necessary and fry eggs to desired doneness (sunny side up, over-easy, or scrambled), seasoning with salt and pepper.
04 - Place one slice of cheese on two toasted bread slices to allow slight melting from residual heat.
05 - Layer 2 bacon strips, sliced avocado, tomato, and spinach or arugula (if using) on each cheese-topped slice.
06 - Place a cooked egg on each stack and cover with remaining toasted bread slices.
07 - Serve immediately, optionally cutting sandwiches in half for convenience.
