Indulge in a delicious Breakfast Grilled Cheese sandwich that combines the comforting elements of a classic grilled cheese with the heartiness of a breakfast sandwich. Perfect for a quick and satisfying morning meal.


Ingredients

Scale

Egg Mixture:

  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Additional Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 4 slices of bread (sourdough or white)
  • 4 slices cooked bacon
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise (optional)
  • Hot sauce or ketchup for serving (optional)


Instructions

  1. Egg Preparation: In a small bowl, whisk the eggs with milk, salt, and pepper. Scramble in a nonstick skillet until just cooked. Set aside.
  2. Assemble Sandwiches: Spread butter on one side of each bread slice. Layer two slices, butter-side down, and top with scrambled eggs, bacon, and cheese. Place remaining bread slices on top, butter-side up.
  3. Cook Sandwiches: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook sandwiches for 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown and cheese is melted. Serve warm with hot sauce or ketchup.

Notes

  • You can substitute bacon with sausage, ham, or a vegetarian alternative.
  • Enhance with spinach, tomatoes, or avocado for added flavor.
  • Using mayonnaise for a crispy crust instead of butter is an option.
