Ingredients

• 1 medium avocado
• 2 slices smoked bacon
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 clove garlic
• 2 large eggs
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/8 tsp black pepper

Instructions

1. Step 1: Cut 1 medium avocado in half lengthwise, remove the pit, and gently scoop out a small amount of flesh to create a deeper cavity. Place each half cut-side up in a small oven-safe dish.
2. Step 2: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 2 slices smoked bacon and cook for 3-4 minutes until crisp, then transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
3. Step 3: Add 1 minced garlic clove to the skillet with the bacon fat and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
4. Step 4: Crack 2 large eggs into the skillet, spacing them apart, and season with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp black pepper.
5. Step 5: Cover the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes until egg whites are set but yolks remain runny.
6. Step 6: Top the avocado halves with the eggs and crumbled bacon, then serve immediately.
