Ingredients

    1 slice of turkey bacon, chopped or whole
    1 egg
    water

Directions

In an omelet pan or a small frying pan fry the bacon until it's done to your liking. Remove into a paper towel and press the remaining fat out. Keep bacon wrapped to retain heat.

Pour water into the skillet until it is 1 inch deep. My omelet pan uses 1 cup. Turn heat to high. Deglaze the pan by scrapping everything off of the bottom. When water begins to simmer slightly add the egg. Puncture the egg yolk if you like the yolk cooked, leave whole for sunny side up. Add pepper and salt or salt substitute. Turn heat down to med, cover and poach the egg to your preference. Remove egg with a slotted spatula or slotted spoon and drain the water. Plate the egg, unwrap the bacon and place on top.
Note: If you need more carbs to sustain your energy for the morning, serve this on top of a toasted whole grain bagel.
