Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 cups liquid egg whites (or 3 eggs separated)
- 4–6 slices turkey bacon
- 1 medium avocado, sliced
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup fresh spinach, packed
- 2 tablespoons red onion, finely diced
- 2 tablespoons feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives or parsley, chopped
- Black pepper, to taste
- Hot sauce, optional, to taste
- Pinch of sea salt
- Cooking spray or olive oil (for skillet)
Instructions
- Prep ingredients: Dice red onion, halve cherry tomatoes, chop herbs, slice avocado, and crumble feta cheese.
- Heat a small skillet over medium heat and cook turkey bacon in a single layer for 2-3 minutes per side until crispy.
- Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, then crumble into bite-sized pieces.
- In a medium bowl, whisk egg whites vigorously for 30-60 seconds until bubbly. Add a pinch of black pepper and salt.
- Wipe out the skillet or use a clean non-stick pan. Heat over medium-low and add a light spray of oil.
- Pour in egg whites. Let sit for 30 seconds, then gently push edges toward the center with a spatula, allowing uncooked egg to flow to edges. Cook for 1-2 minutes until mostly set but still slightly moist.
- Assemble the bowl: Place cooked eggs in the center. Arrange avocado, tomatoes, and spinach around the eggs.
- Top with crumbled turkey bacon and feta cheese.
- Garnish with fresh herbs, a crack of black pepper, and hot sauce if desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
Do not overcook the eggs; they should be soft and custardy, not dry. Ensure turkey bacon is crispy to avoid a soggy bowl. Use fresh herbs for best flavor and color. This recipe is naturally gluten-free, but check labels on bacon and egg whites. Avocado should be at room temperature to avoid shocking the warm eggs.
