Ingredients

3 large tomatoes sliced
3 - 4 pieces cooked bacon chopped (depending on the thickness level- I used 3 Pieces of Trader Joe’s Applewood Smoked Uncured Bacon)
2 cups microgreens can be bought at TJ’s, or sub spinach
1 large green onion chopped
¼ teaspoon dill
½ cup chopped parsley
5 eggs
1 ¼ cups egg whites
1 garlic clove minced
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon garlic
¼ teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon avocado oil or EVOO

Instructions

Cook bacon according to package directions.
Preheat Oven to 350F & place an oven safe skillet over medium heat
Whisk eggs, egg whites, and seasonings (salt, garlic, dill, and pepper) in a medium bowl. Set aside.
Add onion and minced garlic to the pan, sauté for 1-2 minutes until soft.
Add micro greens and parsley to pan and sauté until wilted about 1-2 minutes.
Whisk eggs again to ensure combined and add to pan, then add bacon. Stir briefly to ensure it is combined with greens. Finally top the mixture with tomato slices.
Place skillet in oven for 25-30 minutes until fully set and slightly browned on top.
Let cool at least 5 minutes and serve!

Notes

There's no denying bacon tastes great. I like to look for brands with fewer additives.
