Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
1 cup diced potato, or cauliflower if keto preparation is desired
1 cup diced bell peppers, any combination of red, yellow, orange or green
¼ cup diced onion
2 strips Applegate bacon, or other sugar free bacon
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 egg at room temperature
1/2 avocado, sliced
Salt and pepper to taste
In skillet over medium heat, cook bacon to desired doneness. Remove and set aside to drain.
In same skillet over medium heat, add olive oil, potato or cauliflower and cook until al dente.
Add diced peppers and onions and cook until peppers and onions are tender and the potato or cauliflower is beginning to brown.
While vegetables are cooking, bring water in sauce pan to just boiling.
Crack egg into a saucer being careful to not break yolk.
Slide egg gently into simmering water and let cook to desired doneness.
Assemble vegetables, bacon, avocado and poached egg.
Note: Adding vinegar to the poaching water may help the egg white keep shape, but it leaves a taste of vinegar in your egg. The whirlpool method may create a visually appealing egg white, but it also separates proteins and results in a tougher white. I opt for the simplest poaching method because it creates the best tasting egg, in my opinion.
