Avocado, Turkey and Pepper Jack Breakfast Sandwich
Quick, filling, easy and fun, these open-faced breakfast sandwiches are one of my family's favorite meals. I favor using pepper jack cheese and smoked turkey breast, but ham and swiss makes a fine combination, too.
Take a biscuit cutter or a sharp knife and cut a hole in the center of each slice of bread.
Melt the butter in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Working one or two at a time so as not to crowd the skillet, place the bread in the hot fat, and crack an egg open into the hole cut into the center of each slice. Cook the egg and bread together in the hot fat for 2 to 3 minutes or until the white is set, then flip it over.
Top each slice of bread and egg with avocado, 2 slices of turkey and 1 slice of cheese. Cover the skillet with a tight-fitting lid, continuing to cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until the cheese melts and the yolk is done to your liking. Sprinkle with parsley, or other herbs of your choice, and serve warm.
