Nothing Fancy Egg and Bacon Muffin Sandwhich

Submitted by stashtree

"This is a good way to get some protein and carbohydrates in the morning. I usually try to have all the bacon precooked so that it cuts the cook time in half in the morning. I usually serve it with a smoothie and another fruit. (this recipe is for 1 sandwich)"

Great quick and filling breakfast treat! I used a piece of sliced American cheese instead of the shredded cheddar and really enjoyed - thanks for sharing your recipe! Made for My-3-Chefs 2012

I was craving eggs but didn't have time to make anything for breakfast, but I did make this for lunch! I left my egg sunny side up and used a sprouted wheat English muffin, very yummy!
