Servings: 6 sliders
Ingredients
- 6 eggs
- 3 slices of bacon
- ½ medium-sized avocado
- ½ tsp 2.5mL lime juice
- Pinch of pepper
- Pinch of salt
- 1 ½ deli slices cheddar cheese sliced into fourths
Garnishes:
- Pinch of paprika
- Freshly-cracked pepper
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Add eggs to saucepan in even layer. Cover with water and place pan on stovetop over high heat. Bring water to a boil then boil for 9 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare an ice bath by filling a bowl with ice cubes and then covering with water.
- Additionally, while eggs boil, cook bacon on stovetop until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to de-grease, break in half, and set aside.
- Once time has lapsed for boiling eggs, immediately carefully transfer eggs from boiling water to ice bath. Allow eggs to sit in ice bath for several minutes.
- Meanwhile, mash avocado in a bowl. Add lime juice, pepper, and salt. Set aside.
- Remove eggs from ice bath and peel and dispose of shells. Slice each egg in half lengthwise.
- Lay 6 of the sliced eggs on a plate, top with piece of sliced cheddar, dollop of mashed avocado, halved slice of crisped bacon, then top with other side of egg. Secure each with a toothpick. Repeat until you've yielded 6 egg sliders.
- Garnish each egg slider with paprika, freshly-cracked pepper, and salt.
Notes
If You Want The Sliders To Sit Flat On A Serving Dish: Using a sharp knife, slice off a small lengthwise piece on the bottom of 6 of the hard-boiled eggs so that the eggs will sit level on a plate.
