INGREDIENTS

  • 2 medium slice (yield after cooking) Bacon
  • 2 spear, medium (5-1/4" to 7" long) Asparagus
  • 1 large Egg (Whole)
  • 1 oz Swiss Cheese

DIRECTIONS

  1. Cook bacon in a small skillet over medium high heat. Reserve some of the bacon fat in the skillet and discard the rest or save for another use. Chop bacon into small pieces and set aside.
  2. Cook asparagus in skillet with reserved bacon grease until tender, about 3 minutes. Remove and cut into bite-size pieces.
  3. Add eggs, bacon, cheese and asparagus back to pan and scramble together until egg is cooked and cheese is melted, about 3 minutes. Or omit the cheese and instead sprinkle over the eggs after they are cooked.
  4. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
