Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 tablespoon Milk
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 Slices of bread
- 2 slices Bacon
- 2 slices Cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon Mayonnaise
- 1 handful Fresh spinach (optional)
Instructions
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove the bacon and set it aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until combined.
Wipe the skillet clean and place it back over medium heat. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter and pour in the egg mixture. Scramble the eggs gently until they are just cooked through, then remove from the heat.
Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on one side of each slice of bread.
Assemble the sandwich by layering scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, cheddar cheese, and optional fresh spinach between the slices of bread, with the mayonnaise side facing out.
Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in the skillet over medium heat. Place the assembled sandwich in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet, cut it in half, and serve immediately.
