Ingredients
- 1 cup grape tomatoes (halved)
- 1 avocado, diced
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (extra-virgin)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar (divided)
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 6 (7 to 8 ounces) bread slices (thick bakery bread slices, toasted)
- 3 cups lettuce (you favorite mix)
- 12 ounces sliced bacon (12 slices, cooked)
How to Make
-
Step 1: Make the relish - combine the grape tomatoes, diced avocado, basil, garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper, and 2 1/2 teaspoons of the red wine vinegar in a small bowl. Set aside until you are ready to assemble the benedicts.
-
Step 2: Poach the eggs - Fill a large saucepan with 3 inches of water. Bring the water to a boil and reduce the heat until the water steadily simmers lightly. Add the 1/2 teaspoon of red wine vinegar; this will help the egg whites curl around the yolks as the eggs poach. Break the eggs, one at a time into a small bowl, and slide them into the simmering water. Simmer for 3 to 5 minutes, or until they are done to your liking. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon.
-
Step 3: Assembly - Spread a layer of mayonnaise on one side of the toasted bread. Add about 1/2 cup of lettuce, 2 slices of bacon, followed by one poached egg on top of each toast slice. Top with the relish and enjoy!
