Kale is an excellent source of calcium, which has an important role in egg maturation and follicle development in the ovaries.

Ingredients

8 slices bacon
1 Garlic clove, minced
1/4 c. red wine vinegar
2 tbsp. Dijon mustard
kosher salt
Black pepper
1/2 c. extra-virgin olive oil
2 tbsp. butter
4 eggs
1 lb. kale, chopped
1 c. grated Parmesan
1 avocado, sliced
1 c. croutons

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line sheet pan with parchment and place bacon strips without overlapping them. Bake until crispy, 20 to 25 minutes.
Meanwhile, make dressing: In a small jar, add garlic, vinegar, mustard, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, 1/2 cup oil and, with a tightly fitted lid, shake until blended. Keep in fridge until ready to serve.
In a large non-stick skillet, melt butter over medium heat. When it begins to bubble, fry eggs until whites are set and edges are crispy but yolk is bright yellow and runny, 3 to 5 minutes.
In a larger platter or bowl, toss kale with dressing. Top with Parmesan, avocado, croutons, a fried egg, and bacon.
