Description
A comforting and filling breakfast grilled cheese featuring crispy bacon, fluffy scrambled eggs, and melted cheese, all sandwiched between buttery bread.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 slices of bread (sourdough or whole grain)
- 2 slices of cheese (cheddar or your preferred variety)
- 2 eggs
- 2 slices of bacon
- Butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cook the bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until it’s crispy. Remove it from the skillet and set aside, leaving the drippings in there for flavor.
- Scramble the eggs: In the same skillet, crack the eggs and scramble them up. Add a pinch of salt and pepper for taste. Don’t rush this step; you want them fluffy!
- Butter the bread: Butter one side of each slice of bread.
- Layer it up: Place one slice of bread, butter-side down, in the skillet. Then layer with one slice of cheese, your scrambled eggs, the crispy bacon, and another slice of cheese. Top with the second slice of bread, butter-side up.
- Grill: Grill it until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Serve: Remove from the heat, cut in half, and serve while it’s warm.
Notes
