I made one for me and one for DH without telling him there was mayonnaise in it. He was surprised how good it tasted. Probably because of the chives and tabasco. This was so good. we didn't use the fried eggs. Thanks ratherbeswimmin :) Made for Name that ingredient tag game

The basil in the mayo was just superb, I did serve them on wholemeal/wholegrain rolls (didn't toast them though) but with the crispy bacon and fresh garden tomatoes and crispy iceburg lettuce and a freshly fried egg sitting on top what is there not to like and this was served as a light dinner. Thank you ratherbeswimmin', made for Bargain Basement.
