In a medium size bowl lightly beat the eggs with the half and half and salt and pepper-how ever much you prefer.

You can always add more later if needed-however egg dishes imo taste bland if not enough salt is used.

Put a large nonstick skillet over med-hi heat and add the butter.
4

Let it get bubbling and then add the jalapeno and stir fry for about 1 minute,lower heat to medium and then add the eggs.
5

Scramble the eggs til soft about 1-2 minutes.
6

When eggs are almost set add the bacon crumbles and gently fold into the eggs.
7

Remove from heat.This whole process from jalapeno to eggs being done shouldn't take more than 4 minutes or so.
8

Gently fold in 1/2 the cheese and then sprinkle the rest on top and let sit til melted.
9

Split the eggs evenly between 2 plates and sprinkle with green onion and top with 2 T salsa each as well as the avocado slices.

A fruit salad also goes well with this.
