Ingredients

  • 3-4 slices bacon grass-fed
  • 4-6 eggs pasture raised
  • 1 tablespoon onion
  • 1 tablespoon bell pepper
  • 1 teaspoon mushroom
  • 1 tablespoon cherry tomato
  • 2 English muffins
  • 1 handful spinach
  • 1 small avocado

Tomato Balsamic Sauce

  • 2 teaspoons avocado oil
  • 10 cherry tomatoes
  • teaspoon garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
  • black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450° F. Lightly grease a large muffin pan. Set aside.
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper, then place the bacon evenly on the tray.
  • Place the bacon in the oven until it reaches your desired level of crispiness, about 18-20 minutes.
  • Whisk the eggs, onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, and tomatoes together in a medium-sized bowl.
  • Pour the egg combination into the greased pan, place into the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the center is set. Try not to overcook the eggs.
  • Meanwhile, begin to prepare the Tomato Balsamic Sauce. Oil a medium-sized skillet with avocado oil. Add in the roughly chopped cherry tomatoes.
  • Add the garlic, balsamic vinegar, and black pepper to the skillet. Set the heat to medium-low and let the sauce saute until desired consistency is reached, about 10 minutes.
  • While the eggs, bacon and sauce are cooking, toast your English muffin in a toaster.
  • To assemble the sandwich, spread the Tomato Balsamic Sauce over both sides of the muffin, place the egg mixture on top, a small handful of spinach, avocado, bacon, and the top of the muffin. Enjoy!

Notes
