Ultimate Morning Boost Bagel: Sliced Ibérico Coppa Bacon & Creamy Egg Deligh
Ingredients
- 2 pack of Campo Grande Sliced Ibérico Coppa Bacon
- 4 Bagels, halved
- ½ cup Cream Cheese
- 1 tablespoon Fresh Chives, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
- 3 large Eggs
- 1 cup Arugula
- Salt and Pepper (to taste)
- Olive Oil for cooking
Preparation
-
Transfer the Coppa Bacon from the freezer to the refrigerator. Allow it to thaw overnight.
-
Prepare the Cream Cheese Spread. In a small bowl, mix 1/2 cup of cream cheese, 1 tablespoon of finely chopped fresh chives, and 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard. Stir until smooth and well combined. Set aside in the refrigerator.
-
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat (350°F). Once hot, add the coppa bacon slices. Cook for about 3 minutes per side, or until crispy and golden brown. Remove and set aside on a paper towel to drain excess grease.
-
In a bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the same skillet over low heat. Pour in the eggs and stir constantly with a spatula as they cook (this will make them extra creamy). Cook for about 3 minutes, until the eggs are softly scrambled and just set. Remove from heat.
-
While the eggs cook, toast the bagel halves in a toaster or on the skillet until golden brown.
-
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly on the toasted bagel halves. Add a generous layer of scrambled eggs. Top with crispy coppa bacon slices. Finish with a handful of fresh arugula.
