I cooked it more like a regular omelet and then transferred it to the broiler with the buttered bread and cheese. It tasted very good, the veggies were great. It is quite greasy just as a grilled cheese but good just the same. I can't see myself scrambling the eggs and having the veggies seperate. I thought I would but then it seemed easier and less messy to go the other route when I already had the frying pan out. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

Love these sandwiches. I omit the cheese and mix hot sauce and/or various seasonings into the eggs while I scramble them. Usually use bacon. Thanks, Laurie!

Excellent sandwich!!! I substituted shaved honey ham, as that is what I had on hand, and I didn't add it this time, but I think a little mustard on the inside of the bread would work well as well. Easy, the whole family enjoyed it very much.

I made these sandwiches after we got home from the ballpark (late) and the kids were whining about being hungry. I usually keep all these ingredients around and it was no trouble to whip them up on the spur of the moment. I used bacon because that is our favorite but sausage would also be good. Very filling and will definitely make these again. Thanks Laurie.
