Ingredients
- 4 slices of bacon
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small yellow onion, diced
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 cups of chopped broccoli florets
- 5 large eggs, beaten with a dash of salt and pepper
Directions
-
Heat two large pans over medium heat (we used a flat skillet for the bacon and a deeper frying pan for the vegetables).
-
Once hot, add the bacon to one pan and the olive oil to the other.
-
Cook the bacon, turning often, until crispy (about 6-8 minutes).
-
While the bacon is cooking, add the diced onions to your other pan and cook, stirring often, until translucent (about 3-4 minutes).
-
Add the broccoli and cook for about 3 minutes until it begins to soften.
-
At this point, your bacon should be nice and crispy. Remove it from the pan and pour all but about a teaspoon of the bacon grease into the pan with your broccoli. Set your bacon pan back on the pre-heated burner. You can also add in the minced garlic. Stir well. Cook for about 7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
-
Pour the eggs into the skillet you used to cook the bacon, which should still be hot. Let the eggs cook undisturbed until set, about 5-7 minutes. Once set, flip and let cook for 1-2 minutes on the other side.
-
Pour broccoli mixture over half of eggs and lay bacon slices on top. Fold eggs over and cut into two equal pieces using your spatula.
