Description
A quick and delicious bagel breakfast sandwich featuring fluffy scrambled eggs, melted cheese, and optional savory additions like bacon or avocado. Perfect for a satisfying morning meal ready in just 10 minutes.
Ingredients
Bagel
- 1 bagel (Use your favorite bagel!)
Eggs
- 2 large eggs
- 1 egg white (optional)
- Salt & pepper, to taste
Cheese
- 1 slice cheese (Colby jack, Monterey jack, American, or cheddar)
Optional Additions
- Bacon, sausage, avocado, condiments, etc. (as desired)
Instructions
- Toast the bagel: Lightly toast the bagel to your desired crispness and set it aside while you prepare the eggs.
- Heat the skillet: Place a small skillet over low heat and coat it with a little butter or oil to prevent sticking and add flavor.
- Cook the eggs: Once the pan is hot, crack the eggs and add the optional egg white if using. Season with salt and pepper, then scramble by gently whisking every so often over low heat until cooked to your preferred consistency.
- Assemble the sandwich: Spoon the scrambled eggs onto the bottom half of the toasted bagel. Place a slice of cheese over the eggs, then cover with the top half of the bagel.
- Melt the cheese (optional): Microwave the assembled sandwich briefly just long enough to melt the cheese if desired. Then slice the sandwich in half and enjoy immediately.
Notes
- Use any variety of bagel and cheese based on your taste preferences.
- Optional additions like bacon, sausage, or avocado can enhance flavor and nutrition.
- Cooking the eggs on low heat helps achieve creamy, soft scrambled eggs.
- Microwaving to melt cheese is optional; you can also melt it in the skillet before assembling.
- This recipe makes one sandwich but can be easily doubled or tripled for more servings.
