BLTAE (Bacon, Lettuce, Tomato, Avocado, and Egg Sandwich)

Oh my, I love a good sandwich, and this one is amazing. This BLTAE (bacon, lettuce, tomato, avocado, and egg sandwich) is my new favorite—it was messy but SO GOOD! What could be better than tasty bread with soft and creamy avocado slices, crisp lettuce, sweet vine-ripened tomatoes, salty bacon, and an over-easy egg? I loved the combination of flavors and textures, and they paired nicely with baked sweet potato chips and a fruit salad.

BLTAE (Bacon, Lettuce, Tomato, Avocado, and Egg Sandwich):

Ingredients:

• 2 slices of bacon
• 1 egg
• Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste
• 2 slices of bread, toasted
• Mayonnaise
• Avocado slices
• Lettuce
• Tomato slices

How to Make a BLTAE (Bacon, Lettuce, Tomato, Avocado, and Egg Sandwich)

Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp and cooked through. Remove the bacon and nearly all of the bacon grease.

Crack the egg into the pan and season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Once the egg white is no longer transparent, add 2 teaspoons of water to the pan and cover with a lid.

Cook for about 30 seconds or until the yolk is clouded over. Don’t overcook or the yolk will be hard (unless that is your desire).

While the egg is cooking, toast the bread.

Spread each piece of toast with mayonnaise.

Layer the toast with avocado, lettuce, tomato, and bacon, then top with the cooked egg.

Add the other piece of toast on top and serve immediately. Enjoy!
