In a medium mixing bowl, crack the eggs and beat them with a fork or whisk until completely blended.
Stir in the bean sprouts, diced onion, diced green bell pepper, cooked shrimp (if using), soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a medium-sized nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Pour half the egg mixture into the skillet and gently spread it out into a round patty, about the size of your sandwich bread.
Cook the patty for 3-4 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and firm enough to flip. Carefully flip the patty and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until cooked through. Remove and set aside on a plate.
Repeat with the remaining egg mixture to make a second patty.
While the patties cool slightly, lightly toast the white sandwich bread, if desired.
Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise onto one side of each slice of bread.
Place a lettuce leaf on top of the mayonnaise on two slices of bread, followed by a tomato slice, pickle slice, and the cooked egg patty.
Top the sandwich with the remaining slices of bread, mayonnaise-side down.
Cut each sandwich in half and serve immediately. Enjoy your St. Paul Sandwich!
