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
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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).
- 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.
