How to make avocado toast with bacon and egg.
You only have to follow these three easy and simple steps to have a delicious avocado toast and bacon recipe you will enjoy.
Step 1: Prep the avocado
Slice avocado down the middle to open. Spoon out all of the avocado from both shells into a small mixing bowl. Mix in lemon juice, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well. Taste and adjust ingredients if desired.
Step 2: Poach the egg
Boil 6 cups of water. Once boiling, crack both eggs open, and gently drop them into boiling water. Boil each egg for exactly 3.5 minutes. When time is up, gently remove each egg with a slotted spoon and place it on a paper towel to dry.
Step 3: Make the toast
Spread your avocado mixture evenly over both slices of bread. Don't forget to toast it first! Sprinkle the bacon bits over top. Place one egg on each slice of toast. Drizzle sriracha over each slice of toast and serve immediately.

I make this often, especially on days that I golf because of its high protein content. I make sure I use good quality sour dough bread for my toast and sprinkle Momofuko's chili crisp instead of Siracha.
