📝 Ingredients:
- 2 slices of bread (white, whole wheat, or sourdough)
- 1 large egg
- 1 tbsp butter or oil
- 1 slice cheese (cheddar, American, or your favorite)
- 1–2 slices of cooked bacon or ham (optional)
- Lettuce or spinach (optional)
- 1 slice tomato (optional)
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Hot sauce or mayo (optional, for spreading)
👩🍳 Instructions:
- Toast the bread: Lightly toast the bread slices in a toaster or on a skillet until golden.
- Fry the egg: Heat butter or oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Crack the egg into the pan and cook to your preferred doneness (sunny side up, over-easy, or fully cooked). Season with salt and pepper.
- Melt the cheese: Once the egg is nearly done, place the cheese slice on top and cover briefly to melt.
- Assemble the sandwich: Spread mayo or hot sauce on toasted bread (optional). Add lettuce, tomato, bacon/ham (if using), and place the cheesy fried egg on top. Close with the second slice.
- Serve hot: Slice in half and enjoy warm with coffee, juice, or a side of hash browns.
🧠 Pro Tips:
