Ingredients

  • ½ lb ground beef
  • 2 slice bread slices
  • ½ avocado
  • 1 egg
  • 2 leaf lettuce
  • 2 slice tomato

Instructions

  1. 1

    Season the 0.5 lb ground beef with salt and pepper, then shape into a thin patty slightly larger than your bread. Heat a skillet over medium-high and cook the patty until browned and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side.

  2. 2

    While the patty cooks, toast the 2 bread slices in a toaster or dry skillet until golden and crisp, about 2 minutes.

  3. 3

    In the same skillet, fry the 1 egg to your liking—sunny-side up or over easy—about 2-3 minutes, until the white is set and the yolk is still runny.

  4. 4

    Mash the 0.5 avocado onto the toasted bread slices. Top with the 2 lettuce leaves and 2 tomato slices.

  5. 5

    Place the cooked patty on one slice, then top with the fried egg. Close with the other slice, slice in half, and serve immediately.
