Ingredients

Scale

Primary Ingredients

  • 4 fresh eggs
  • 100g plant-based feta, crumbled
  • 4 slices smoky turkey bacon, chopped into bite-sized pieces

Seasonings and Oils

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (natural)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (natural)
  • Freshly cracked black pepper (natural), to taste

Garnish

  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley or chives, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Chop the smoky turkey bacon into bite-sized pieces and crumble the plant-based feta. Set aside along with the other ingredients for easy workflow.
  2. Cook the Turkey Bacon: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a splash of olive oil (natural). Add the turkey bacon pieces and fry until golden and crispy, turning occasionally for even browning. Transfer to a paper towel to drain excess oil.
  3. Fry the Plant-Based Feta: In the same pan, add the crumbled plant-based feta. Let it fry undisturbed for a couple of minutes to crisp the edges, then gently flip to crisp the other side. Remove and set aside with the turkey bacon.
  4. Fry the Eggs: Carefully crack the eggs into the skillet one at a time to avoid breaks. Cook sunny side up until the whites are set but yolks remain soft. Season lightly with garlic powder (natural) and freshly cracked black pepper (natural).
  5. Combine Everything: Once the eggs are cooked, top each with the crispy plant-based feta and turkey bacon pieces. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley or chives to add color and fresh flavor.

Notes

  • Use medium heat to prevent burning and achieve perfect crispiness on feta and bacon.
  • Preheat skillet thoroughly to create a delicious crust.
  • Avoid overcrowding the pan to cook ingredients evenly.
  • Fresh eggs improve texture with firmer whites and creamier yolks.
  • Season eggs after placing them in the pan to avoid bitterness.
