Ingredients

For the avocado base

1/2 medium ripe avocado peeled and pitted
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt or to taste
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper or to taste
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

For the eggs and toppings

2 large eggs
1 tablespoon crumbled cooked bacon optional, for extra protein and flavor
1 tablespoon shredded cheddar cheese or your favorite keto-friendly cheese
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes optional, for heat
1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs such as parsley, chives, or cilantro, optional

Instructions

Fill a small saucepan with enough water to cover the eggs by about 1 inch and bring the water to a gentle boil over medium-high heat.
Gently lower the eggs into the boiling water and cook until they reach your preferred doneness, about 6 to 7 minutes for jammy yolks or 10 to 12 minutes for hard boiled.
While the eggs cook, scoop the avocado into a small bowl and mash it with a fork to your desired texture.
Add the lemon juice, sea salt, black pepper, and olive oil to the mashed avocado and stir until well combined and creamy, then taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
When the eggs are done, transfer them to cold water for a minute to cool slightly, then peel and slice or halve them carefully.
Spoon the seasoned avocado into a serving bowl and nestle the warm eggs on top of the avocado base.
Top the bowl with crumbled bacon, shredded cheddar, red pepper flakes, and fresh herbs if using, then serve immediately while the eggs are still warm.

Notes

For faster mornings, boil several eggs in advance and store them in the refrigerator for up to 1 week so you only need to mash the avocado and assemble the bowl. If you want to prep the avocado ahead, toss it with the lemon juice and press plastic wrap directly against the surface to minimize browning, then refrigerate for up to 1 day. Feel free to customize the toppings with everything bagel seasoning, a spoonful of keto-friendly salsa, or smoked salmon for added protein, keeping an eye on carbs if you add packaged toppings. This recipe is best enjoyed fresh and is designed to be a single, very filling keto serving that delivers high fat, moderate protein, and very low net carbs.
