Keto Triple Breakfast Stack

The Keto Triple Breakfast Stack is a powerhouse of a meal that brings together savory, creamy, and spicy flavors for a truly satisfying start to your morning. This dish features a perfectly seared, juicy sausage patty topped with a zesty, chunky guacamole and a sunny-side-up egg that provides a rich, velvety finish as the yolk breaks. The contrast between the warm, salty meat and the cool, citrusy avocado creates a complex flavor profile that feels incredibly indulgent while keeping your macros right on track. It is a fantastic option for those who want a hearty breakfast that does not rely on bread or wraps, offering a satisfying bite and a melt-in-your-mouth texture that will keep you fueled for hours.

If you want to customize this recipe to suit your pantry or taste preferences, there are plenty of easy substitutions you can make. While breakfast sausage provides a classic flavor, you can easily swap it for spicy chorizo or even a seasoned ground turkey patty if you prefer a different protein. For the guacamole, feel free to adjust the heat by adding more jalapeno or swapping the salsa for a smoky chipotle version. If you are looking for an extra layer of decadence, a slice of sharp cheddar or pepper jack cheese melted onto the sausage patty before assembly adds a lovely creaminess. You can also experiment with different herbs like parsley if cilantro is not your favorite, ensuring the dish remains fresh and vibrant to your liking.

For the best experience, we recommend enjoying this breakfast stack immediately while the egg is fresh and the sausage is hot. If you are a meal prepper, you can easily prepare the sausage patties and the guacamole in advance to save time during the busy work week. Store the cooked patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days or freeze them for up to a month. When you are ready to eat, simply reheat the sausage in a skillet over medium heat or in the microwave until warmed through before frying a fresh egg to top it off. Since guacamole can brown over time, keep it in a small container with plastic wrap pressed directly against the surface to maintain that beautiful green color until you are ready to assemble your stack.

Yields 2 servings of Keto Triple Breakfast Stack

The Preparation

For Guacamole:

• 1 small avocado, cubed
• 1 tablespoon salsa
• 1 tablespoon red onion, large dice
• 1/2 small jalapeno pepper, diced, *see note
• 1 teaspoon lime juice
• salt and pepper, to taste

Stack Ingredients:

• 6 ounces breakfast sausage
• 2 large egg
• 2 tablespoons butter
• salt and pepper, to taste
• 1/2 small jalapeno pepper, diced, optional topping
• 1 teaspoon fresh cilantro, chopped, optional topping

The Execution

1. Gather all ingredients. Begin by making guacamole. To a bowl, add the avocado, onion, jalapeno, salsa, and lime juice. Add salt and pepper, to taste. Mash it up with a fork, leaving it somewhat chunky. Set aside.

2. Heat a pan over medium heat. While pan is heating, shape patties out of the sausage meat. When pan is ready, add half the butter. Once the butter has melted, place patties in the pan and cook until they are browned and halfway cooked (about 3 minutes). Turn the patties and cook until completely cooked (2-3 more minutes). Set aside on a paper towel to absorb excess grease.

3. Turn heat under pan down slightly, if using an egg mold. To the pan, add the remaining butter and, once melted, crack in the eggs. Cook until the egg whites are cooked through, but the yolks remain runny.

4. When done, set sausage patty on plate. Top each patty with guacamole. (To aid in this, place egg mold on top of patty, add guacamole, then remove mold.) Place fried egg on top and season with salt and pepper to taste. If desired, top with diced jalapeno and cilantro.
