Is there anything simpler than an Avocado Bagel? Toasted sesame Bagel, sliced fresh Avocado with a sprinkling of Mexican seasoning salt topped with crispy bacon and a poached egg. Simple, elegant, swoon worthy!
Lay the bacon flat onto a baking sheet lined with either a Silpat mat or parchment paper. Place into a 350 degrees F. oven for about 15 minutes until crispy.
Once the bacon is crispy, remove from the oven. Optional: lay the bacon on a plate lined with paper towel to absorb unwanted grease.
Prepare the avocado when the bacon is roasting. Follow the directions in the Instructions section above how to safely cut into an avocado.
Remove the peel from the avocado and slice it according to your desired level of thickness.
To ensure a perfectly poached egg, break the egg into a fine mesh sieve. Allow the water to drain out, then place it into a small bowl. Repeat this with the second egg.
Pour the egg carefully into a pot of boiling salted water. Repeat with the second egg. No need to stir or whisk the water. Just allow the eggs to simmer in the water.
For a soft poached egg, remove the eggs with a slotted spoon after 2½ to 3 minutes. If you prefer your eggs firmer then cook them for 5 - 6 minutes.
Slice the Bagel and toast it. Then place each Bagel half on a plate and arrange the Avocado slices on it. Sprinkle with seasoning, place the bacon on top of the Avocado slices and finally place the poached egg on top. Eat immediately and enjoy!
