Whenever I’m cooking up bacon for a meal, I like to just cook up the entire package on racks set over a baking sheet in the oven. Since it’s a zero-carb food, it’s great when I need a freebie for a meal or just for a quick snack.

Save RecipeIngredients
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 4 small mushrooms, sliced
- ¼ cup crisply cooked and diced bacon
- 1 large egg
- ½ cup egg white
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
- 3 large eggs
Instructions
Melt ½ the butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat. When butter is melted add mushrooms and sauté without stirring until one side is lightly browned. Remove to plate.
Add remaining butter to the pan. When butter is melted, add egg whites. Stir in a small pinch of salt and black pepper. Stir until almost starting to set. Stir in green chili, mushrooms, and bacon.
When eggs are almost set, sprinkle cheddar cheese over top. Cover pan; turn off heat and let sit until cheese is melted.
Set the 3 large eggs in a small pan. Cover eggs with water and bring water to a boil. Turn off heat, leaving the pan on the burner. Cover and let sit for 20 minutes. Remove eggs from water and run under cold water to cool down enough to put them in the fridge. You can use these eggs for today's lunch and snack.
Notes
Make Ahead: Hard boil three eggs and set aside for today’s lunch and snack.
Freebie: Have some extra slices of bacon.
Variation: Use 1 cup fresh spinach or ¼ cup frozen, thawed and squeezed dry in place of the mushrooms. Use 1 tablespoon diced green chilies, roasted red bell pepper, fresh thyme, fresh oregano, or fresh sage in place of the parsley. Use chicken or steak in place of the bacon.
