Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 2 large Eggs Cooked until soft to wrap the bread.
  • 2 slices Bread Sturdy types like sourdough, whole wheat or brioche work best.
  • 1 teaspoon Butter or oil For cooking the eggs and toasting the bread.
  • 1 slice Cheese Cheddar or any preferred melting cheese.
  • 1 pinch Salt To taste.
  • 1 pinch Pepper To taste.

Optional Extras

  • 2 slices Tomato Thinly sliced, optional for juiciness.
  • 1 handful Spinach Fresh or pre-cooked to be added.
  • 2 tablespoons Cooked bacon or ham For added protein.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add a teaspoon of butter or oil.
  • In a bowl, crack two eggs, season with salt and pepper, and whisk until combined.
  • Pour the eggs into the pan, tilting to spread evenly like a small omelet.
  • Immediately place the two slices of bread on top of the eggs and gently press them down.

Cooking

  • Cook for about 1 to 2 minutes until the egg is mostly set and edges begin to lift from the pan.
  • If using, sprinkle cheese and any optional extras on top before flipping.
  • Carefully flip the entire egg and bread using a spatula.
  • Fold in the edges of the egg towards the bread to create a neat sandwich.
  • Continue to toast for about 1 minute until bread is crisp and cheese is melted.

Serving

  • Serve hot, cut in half if desired.

Notes
