Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup cheddar cheese
- 2 pieces bread slices
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 leaf lettuce leaf
- 1 slice tomato slice
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt and coat the bottom of the pan.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit for a few seconds without stirring, then gently stir with a spatula.
Continue to cook and gently stir the eggs, pushing them from one side of the pan to the other. Do not over-stir to ensure large, soft curds form.
Once the eggs are nearly set but still slightly runny, sprinkle the cheddar cheese over them. Fold the eggs over themselves to melt the cheese and finish cooking, then remove from heat.
Meanwhile, toast the bread slices until golden brown. Spread the mayonnaise evenly on one side of each toast slice.
Place the lettuce leaf on one slice of toast, followed by the tomato slice, and then spoon the cheesy scrambled eggs on top.
Close the sandwich with the other slice of toast, mayonnaise side down.
Cut the sandwich in half, if desired, and serve immediately while the eggs are warm.
