Ingredients

2 servings
  • Avocado
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (4 grinds of cracked pepper)
  • Butter(15g)
  • Egg, Whole, Large
  • Skim Milk(30g)
  • Mozzarella Cheese(30g)

    Part-skim mozzarella. Pre-shredded bags are convenient for meal prep.

  • Bacon(30g)
  • Tomato, Cherry(240g)
  • Parsley, Fresh(5g)

Instructions

  1. 1Fry the bacon pieces in a nonstick pan until golden and crisp; transfer to a paper towel lined plate.
  2. 2While bacon is frying, prepare avocados: halve, pit and gently remove the skin.
  3. 3Scoop out some of the avocado flesh, leaving a 1cm thick edge around to create a 'boat.' Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 2 grinds fresh cracked pepper, set aside.
  4. 4Lightly whisk the eggs with the milk and remaining salt and pepper.
  5. 5Melt the butter over low-medium heat in the same nonstick pan.
  6. 6Add the eggs and let them sit for about 5 seconds. Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, stir the eggs using long gentle strokes, pushing them into a pile. Continue folding the eggs into piles around the pan for about 1 minute until no longer wet/runny.
  7. 7Once set to an almost custard-like consistency, remove from heat and quickly fold the cheese through for an additional 10 seconds until cheese melts (the eggs will continue to cook from the residual heat of the pan).
  8. 8To serve, spoon immediately into the prepared avocado boats and top with the crispy bacon and herbs. Season with a little extra salt/pepper if desired. Serve with tomatoes.
