Ingredients
Crushed red pepper flakes 1 tbsp or 1g
Directions
- Preheat your grill to maximum, then lay the bacon on the grill pan or a baking tray and slide underneath. Grill for 3 minutes on each side for crispy bacon.
- Meanwhile, cut your avocado in half, remove the stone and scoop out a generous tablespoon of flesh from each half to create a hole big enough for the egg
- Crack an egg into each avocado half, season with a little salt and pepper and place on a microwaveable plate. Cook the eggs in 30-second bursts for 2 minutes – this should ensure firm whites, but runny yolks.
- Serve up the baked eggs and avocado with the bacon and some crushed red pepper flakes. Enjoy!
