A breakfast sandwich usually consists of at a minimum:

  • bagel or english muffin
  • egg
  • optional - extra - some kind of meat like bacon or sausage

On my already admittedly loud and dressed up sandwich (just made a batch earlier today), I like:

  • EVERYTHING BAGEL (all the seeds and stuff)
  • CREAM-CHEESE on the bagel both sides
  • SALTED BUTTERon the bagel both sides
  • GUACAMOLE on the bagel both sides, maybe some in the middle
  • EGG (brown) -> omelette evenly split up into 7 portions for 7 days of the week or worth of breakfasts
  • SALSA covering up all the yellow of the egg
  • HASHBROWN/potato patty
  • maybe some BRUSCHETTA to get that tomato complimenting potato even tho thats covered by the salsa already

Pairs fantastically with an English Breakfast tea (black, also taken black) and Pea Milk 🀘

Do yourself a favor and try a nice slixe of tomato. Or microgeens.

  • I barely ever have bread for breakfast. And when I do it's toast with my full English.

    I pop three eggs in a pan, add salt and cover with four slices of toast. Flip when the eggs are done and drop on a slice of cheddar and ham, some rucola. When the toast is toasty i just fold 'em over at th egg-seam.

    I call it Alabama eggs - because they're in bread.

    Gotta be a scrambled egg, runny yolk just gets on my hands and mouth and makes me want to call him. I also put whatever cheese on it and red pepper

    It varies based on what I have on hand and how much time I want to spend.

    bready part: croissant > bagel > english muffin > bread

    eggy part: scrambled egg with diced onion and sweet bell pepper (red/orange/yellow, not shitty green pepper)

    cheesy part: sharp cheddar > pepper jack > less cheddar > swiss > american cheese

    meaty part: bacon > sausage > ham

    Upvote for the shitty green bell pepper.

    The rest all taste better. Why would you go out of your way to get green? (If they're cheaper and you need to spend your money wisely, that's a different story.)

    They taste different. I like sweet bell peppers too, but green gives a green pepper flavor they lack. Using both is ideal, but I appreciate either alone too. Or poblano!

    They definitely taste different, hence me calling the green peppers "shitty" :) I find that they taste particularly vile, and growing up that was the only pepper ever used in our meals so I thought that I hated all peppers. Nope, just green bell peppers.

    Im definitely missing green onion, thanks for the tip. I might just buy an onion but I would love if there was an already prepped version like how theres already smushed garlic and stuff like that

    Ham (or bacon) egg and cheese, always. With the egg over medium if I'm cooking. The bread can vary. I like an everything bagel though.

  • I haven't done one in forever, but I was quite proud of my breakfast sandwich. The original used a hoagie roll and the final build used a brioche bun.

    From the bottom up, it's bun bottom, mayonnaise, 1 hash brown pattie (1.5 for the hoagie), a slice of pepper jack cheese (1.5 for the hoagie), a fried egg shaped like the bun, another/1.5 slice of pepper jack, sausage (or 1.5), mayo, top bun.

    I used to be able to put back two of the hoagies. I'd make two of them, put them on a plate, and go into my room and eat them. Now I can't finish one of the brioche ones.

  • Tortilla or pita with peanut butter and jelly or fruit

    buttermilk biscuit cut in half with butter and a slice of spinach & onion omelet

    alternately when in season, a thin slice of toasted multigrain with thick slices of heirloom tomato and two eggs fried over hard, optionally fresh torn basil

    but a PB&J on wheat is also a fine breakfast

    Depends on my mood. I'm either an egg cheddar and crispy bacon kind of person, or a home fries and eggs kind of person. I find hash browns are too oily in a sandwich for me the few times I've had them.

    A place in the by me has a soft boiled egg, cheddar cheese, and tomato with salt and pepper in a pita pocket that is also delicious.

    Edit: It's afternoon, dinner is in the oven, and now I want breakfast... Thanks.

    Toasted bagel (sesame or poppy preferred) if I'm more hungry, English muffin if less hungry

    Scrambled egg for even texture

    Pork roll/Taylor Ham if available, or either bacon or sausage, whichever is better at the place I'm at.

    American or cheddar based on my mood

    A good cracking of black pepper

    Hash brown on top of I'm feeling extra

    Cholula

    A Tabasco-like hot sauce, pleasant enough to go well on nearly anything.

    I'm a Franks Red Hot or maybe Crystal kinda guy myself in this department, but they are ubiquitous North American red pepper sauces.

    They're all how hot most average hot wings are, if that helps. If you wouldn't eat Buffalo wings, you won't like any of these sauces.

    That's perfectly fine to like it but like whatever you want. It's one of the few childhood dreams adulthood actually allows us! πŸ˜„

    I've cooked for people that thought regular black pepper was borderline too spicy, and that's their prerogative.
