Begin by splitting the English muffin in half and toasting it to your preferred level of crispiness.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil.
Cook the vegetarian sausage patty in the skillet for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until it is well-browned and heated through. Set aside on a plate.
In a small bowl, beat the egg lightly with a fork and season with salt and ground black pepper.
In the same skillet used for the sausage, add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter. Once melted, add the beaten egg.
Gently scramble the egg in the skillet with a spatula, stirring occasionally until it's just cooked through, about 2-3 minutes.
Place the cooked sausage patty on the bottom half of the toasted English muffin.
Top the sausage patty with the scrambled egg.
Place the cheddar cheese slice on top of the scrambled egg so it slightly melts from the warmth.
Finish by placing the top half of the English muffin over the cheese.
Serve hot and enjoy your Vegetarian Sausage Egg and Cheese Sandwich!
