Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all ingredients. Chop the avocado and prepare any toppings you desire.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove them from the skillet and place on paper towels to drain excess grease.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Whisk the Eggs

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.

  2. 4

    Cook the Eggs

    In the same skillet used for bacon, pour the egg mixture and cook over medium heat. Stir gently until the eggs are scrambled and cooked to your liking.

  3. 5

    Toast the Bread

    While the eggs are cooking, toast the bread slices in a toaster or on a skillet until golden brown.

  4. 6

    Assemble the Breakfast

    On each slice of toasted bread, layer the scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, and sprinkle cheddar cheese on top. Let the cheese melt slightly from the heat of the eggs.

  5. 7

    Add Toppings

    Top with sliced avocado, salsa, and sprinkle with hot sauce if desired.
