Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Bagel Breakfast SandwichWe all want to cook a delicious, nutritious breakfast for our family to sit down and eat before starting their day, but let’s face it, sometimes it is just not possible. Everyone is running in all different directions around my house some days and need a breakfast they can take with them to eat on the way.
This Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Bagel Breakfast Sandwich is one of my family favorites since it has the basic ingredients of a sit-down breakfast. I like using a bagel instead of sandwich bread because it is a little more substantial for these ingredients, especially for an on-the-go breakfast.
I hesitate to even call this a recipe, it is so simple. In less than 15 minutes, you can have this sandwich made and you’re ready to walk out the door. If you have leftover bacon from another meal, use it to save even more time. (Does anyone ever have leftover bacon?)
