Cheesy Eggs Sandwich (Printable Version)
# What You'll Need:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
8 slices of sourdough bread
02 -
8 slices of Colby-Jack cheese
03 -
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, split
04 -
6 big eggs, beaten up
05 -
1/2 pound breakfast sausage, ground
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Lay your sandwich in the skillet and let it toast for 3–4 minutes until the bottom looks golden. Flip it super carefully, then toast the other side too. Take it out, move it to your cutting board, and slice it in half if you like.
02 -
Butter one side of all your bread slices. Set a slice, butter down, in your skillet. Add a slice of Colby-Jack, scoop over about 1/2 cup of the sausage-and-egg mix, stack on another cheese slice, and finish up with a bread slice—this time butter side up.
03 -
Throw 2 tablespoons of butter into the pan and melt it over medium-high heat. Pour in your beaten eggs. Let them sit a bit till they look set, then gently stir and keep at it until they’re softly scrambled and the runny stuff’s gone. Take the pan off the heat.
04 -
Toss the breakfast sausage into a big non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook it, breaking it up, till there’s no more pink. Dump it into a bowl lined with a paper towel to catch the grease, then clear out the pan with a paper towel.
05 -
Lift the paper towel from the sausage and put the sausage back in the bowl. Add in your scrambled eggs and mix them together gently. Wipe out your skillet and warm it up again over medium heat.
06 -
Use the rest of the stuff to make more sandwiches. Enjoy while they're still nice and hot.
# Additional Tips:
01 -
Switch things up by using bacon, ham, or stick to eggs and cheese for a veggie-friendly option.
02 -
Mayonnaise browned bread? Way more flavor than butter, give it a shot!
03 -
A juicy tomato slice with a pinch of salt and pepper wakes everything up.
04 -
Not into scrambled eggs? Go for over-easy, over-medium, or over-hard eggs instead.
