Making low carb simple
Instructions
- Fry the bacon in a pan on medium high heat until crispy. Put aside on a plate. Leave the rendered fat in the pan.
- Use the same pan to fry the eggs. Place it over medium heat and crack your eggs into the bacon grease. You can also crack them into a measuring cup and carefully pour into the pan to avoid splattering of hot grease.
- Cook the eggs any way you like them. For sunny side up — leave the eggs to fry on one side and cover the pan with a lid to make sure they get cooked on top. For eggs cooked over easy — flip the eggs over after a few minutes and cook for another minute. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and fry them at the same time.
- Salt and pepper to taste.
Tips
Step up your bacon game with organic bacon if you can find it… it is tastier and has fewer additives.

You don't add anything to fry the bacon in. It renders out its own fat, which is more than enough!
Most packages of seeds or nuts will have the nutrition information and serving size on the package. We also have many visual guides that may give the information you're looking for.

The eggs are 5g/6% fat and 6g/12% protein. The bacon is 3.5g/5% fat and 2.9g/5%.
How am I supposed to calculate this?
I'm not sure what you're asking. The nutrition facts are provided on the recipe. They're listed below the ingredients.
You may use the meat of your choice, but may need to add a bit more fat if you choose a lean meat.
This meal can be eaten at any time of day. No matter when you choose to break your fast, you can enjoy bacon and eggs! :)
Seed Bread would be my preferred option https://www.dietdoctor.com/recipes/soft-keto-seed-bread but Mug Bread is also a good option https://www.dietdoctor.com/recipes/low-carb-mug-bread
Could you please explain how you've calculated 75%, 23% and 2% please, as I haven't figured it out yet.
