About

This breakfast burger is fun, flavorsome and packed with healthy fats.

Avocado serves as the burger bun, housing a hearty filling of fried egg, lettuce, bacon and a pork patty.

The patty itself is simply made with the meat from Italian sausages. For this you could use any sausages you prefer with your favorite blend of seasonings.

Ingredients

  • 2 medium link – breakfast size italian sausage
  • 2 slice – 6" long bacon
  • 2 each hass avocado
  • 2 medium egg whole
  • 2 small leaf iceberg lettuce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Cut into the sausage casings and squeeze the meat into a mixing bowl.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium/high heat. Divide the sausage meat into two even portions and form into individual burger patties with your hands – about a ½ inch thick.
  3. Add the patties to the hot pan and fry until golden brown on the outside and completely cooked through. Set aside, leaving any fat in the pan.
  4. Add the bacon and eggs to the pan with the sausage fat and cook until the bacon is crisp and the eggs are cooked through.
  5. Peel the avocados and slice in half lengthways, removing the stone.
  6. To assemble the burger, slice a little off of the bottom of 2 of the avocado halves – this will give them a flat base to stand on. Layer two of the avocado healves each with a sausage patty, a slice of lettuce, a rasher of crispy bacon and a fried egg. Top with the remaining avocado halves to serve.
