Description

Start your day right with a Breakfast Grilled Cheese with Eggs & Sausage—melted cheese meets protein-packed goodness for a hearty breakfast! This delightful dish combines crispy bread, warm eggy goodness, and savory sausage for a breakfast that is sure to satisfy your cravings.


Ingredients

Scale

Bread

  • 2 slices of your favorite bread (sourdough, whole grain, or white)

Eggs

  • 2 fresh eggs

Sausage

  • 2 sausage links (pork, turkey, or plant-based)

Cheese

  • 2 slices of cheddar or American cheese

Butter

  • 2 tablespoons of butter

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients. This will make the cooking process smoother and more enjoyable. Slice your bread and cheese, and cook your sausage until browned and cooked through.
  2. Cook the Eggs: In a non-stick skillet, crack the eggs and cook them to your desired doneness—sunny side up or scrambled work great. Season them with salt and pepper for extra flavor.
  3. Assemble the Sandwich: On one slice of bread, layer the cooked sausage, then the eggs, followed by a generous amount of cheese. Top with another slice of bread.
  4. Grill the Sandwich: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a pat of butter. Once melted, place the sandwich in the skillet. Grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the bread is golden and the cheese is melted.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Once your Breakfast Grilled Cheese with Eggs & Sausage is perfectly golden, remove it from the skillet. Allow it to cool slightly before slicing in half and serving!

Notes

  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh eggs and high-quality sausage can elevate the flavor of your sandwich.
  • Don’t Rush the Grilling: Cooking on medium heat allows the cheese to melt evenly without burning the bread.
  • Experiment with Cheese: Don’t hesitate to mix different types of cheese for a unique flavor profile.
  • Press Down: Gently press down on the sandwich while grilling for even melting and a crispy crust.
  • Let It Rest: Allow the sandwich to sit for a minute after grilling for easier slicing and better flavor.
