A breakfast worth waking up for! With fresh greens, crispy bacon, jammy eggs, and a zesty, tangy mustard vinaigrette!

Yes, yes, yes.
A breakfast that gets me sprinting out of bed and straight to the kitchen.

Fresh greens, jammy eggs (which can easily be made into hard boiled eggs if runny eggs are not your thing) + crispy bacon slices + fork-tender baby potatoes + ripe avocado slices + nutty, shaved Parmesan sprinkled throughout. All tossed in a zesty, tangy mustard vinaigrette.
Serve with buttered toast and a hot cup of coffee for a complete breakfast.

Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Add bacon and cook until brown and crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Drain excess fat; transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with cold salted water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil and simmer until just tender, about 7-10 minutes; drain well.
To assemble the salad, place arugula in a large bowl; top with bacon, potatoes, eggs, avocado and Parmesan. Pour the mustard vinaigrette on top of the salad and gently toss to combine.
