Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.

  2. Wrap the rolls in aluminum foil and place them in the oven to warm.

  3. Heat the refried beans in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally. Alternatively, heat them in the microwave on medium heat, stirring every 30 seconds until hot. Taste and season with a pinch of salt if needed.

  4. Cook the bacon in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat until crisp, flipping occasionally. Remove the bacon slices with tongs and drain them on paper towels. Add 1/2 tablespoon of bacon fat to the refried beans and stir well. Drain the remaining fat into a bowl and set it aside.

  5. Crack 4 eggs into a large bowl, season with a pinch of salt, and whisk until combined. Heat 1 tablespoon of the reserved bacon fat in the now-empty skillet over medium heat until shimmering, then add the whisked eggs. Tilt the pan to evenly coat the bottom with eggs and cook until set and lightly browned on the bottom (about 1 minute). Use a spatula to fold the eggs like an omelet and continue cooking until lightly browned. Flip and brown the other side. Transfer the cooked eggs to a plate. Repeat the process with more bacon fat and the remaining eggs. Cut both sheets of egg in half to make four sheets.

  6. Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh
