Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 4 bagels (your choice of flavor)
- 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
- 2 medium potatoes, diced
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 cucumber, sliced
- 1 cup peas (fresh or frozen)
- 8 slices of bacon
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: cream cheese for spreading
Instructions
- Prepare the Blueberry Cream Cheese: In a small bowl, mash the blueberries and mix them with cream cheese until well combined. Set aside.
- Cook the Potatoes: Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and season with salt and pepper. Cook until golden and tender, about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Cook the Bacon: In another skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove and let drain on paper towels.
- Cook the Eggs: In the same skillet used for bacon, crack the eggs and cook to your preferred doneness (sunny-side up, scrambled, etc.). Season with salt and pepper.
- Toast the Bagels: While the eggs are cooking, toast the bagels until golden brown.
- Prepare the Peas and Cucumber: If using fresh peas, blanch them in boiling water for 2 minutes. Otherwise, steam frozen peas until tender. Toss with a little salt. Serve cucumber slices on the side.
- Assemble the Bagel Stack: Spread a generous layer of blueberry cream cheese on the bottom half of each toasted bagel. Layer with a slice of bacon, a cooked egg, and a sprinkle of shredded cheese. Top with the other half of the bagel.
- Serve: Plate the bagel stacks alongside the crispy potatoes, peas, and cucumber slices. Enjoy your gourmet breakfast!
