Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cup cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 6 ounce bacon
  • 6 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoon salsa

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400F. Start by placing the cheese in piles (equal to serving totals) on a Silpat. I prefer to use Silpats because they are nonstick and cheese cooks very well on them. Season the cheese piles with paprika and cayenne pepper and bake for 10–12 minutes.
  • Immediately after taking them out of the oven, use an upside-down cupcake tray to form half of the crisps into a cup-like shape. Set these aside for later.
  • Thinly slice the bacon and add it to a heated pan. Cook until crisp. Once browned, remove the bacon from the pan, reserving as much of the grease as possible.
  • Place the strips of bacon on a paper towel to crisp up.
  • Fry half of the eggs in the bacon grease. Use a small ramekin or egg ring to cut off the egg whites and create a perfect circular egg. Once these eggs are finished, scramble the other eggs in the remaining bacon fat. Season them well and don't overcook them!
  • Add the fried eggs to the flat cheese crisps and the scrambled eggs to the cup-shaped crisps. Top with bacon and salsa.
  • Serve and enjoy!
