🕒 Prep Time: 5 mins

🍳 Cook Time: 5 mins

🍽️ Servings: 1

📝 Ingredients:

  • 2 slices of bread (white, whole wheat, or sourdough)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tbsp butter or oil
  • 1 slice cheese (cheddar, American, or your favorite)
  • 1–2 slices of cooked bacon or ham (optional)
  • Lettuce or spinach (optional)
  • 1 slice tomato (optional)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Hot sauce or mayo (optional, for spreading)

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

  1. Toast the bread: Lightly toast the bread slices in a toaster or on a skillet until golden.
  2. Fry the egg: Heat butter or oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Crack the egg into the pan and cook to your preferred doneness (sunny side up, over-easy, or fully cooked). Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Melt the cheese: Once the egg is nearly done, place the cheese slice on top and cover briefly to melt.
  4. Assemble the sandwich: Spread mayo or hot sauce on toasted bread (optional). Add lettuce, tomato, bacon/ham (if using), and place the cheesy fried egg on top. Close with the second slice.
  5. Serve hot: Slice in half and enjoy warm with coffee, juice, or a side of hash browns.

🧠 Pro Tips:

  • Add avocado slices for a creamy upgrade.
  • Use an English muffin or bagel for variation.
  • For a spicy twist, sprinkle chili flakes or add sriracha
