Ingredients

• 2 slices or halves Bread (English muffin, bagel, or sliced bread)
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 tablespoon Butter (optional, for toasting)
• 1 pinch Salt
• 1 pinch Black pepper
• 1 slice Cheese (cheddar, American, or your choice)
• 1 piece Protein (bacon, sausage patty, or ham)
• 2 slices or leaves Vegetables (optional, such as tomato slices or spinach leaves)
• 1 tablespoon Condiments (optional, such as mayonnaise, ketchup, or hot sauce)

Directions

Step 1

Toast your choice of bread to desired crispiness. If using butter, spread it on the bread halves before toasting.

Step 2

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the chosen protein (bacon, sausage patty, or ham) until fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, crack two eggs. Cook them as desired—scrambled, over-easy, or fried. Add a pinch of salt and black pepper for seasoning.

Step 4

If using cheese, place a slice of cheese on top of one egg while it's still in the skillet to help it melt slightly.

Step 5

Assemble your sandwich: Start with one piece of bread as the base. Layer the cooked protein, vegetables of your choice, cooked eggs (with or without cheese), and any additional condiments you prefer.

Step 6

Top with the second piece of bread and press gently to hold the sandwich together.

Step 7

Serve warm and enjoy your customized breakfast egg sandwich!
