How to...Make a Killer Fried Egg Sandwich

Ingredients

• 2 slices Flax Whole Grain Bread (50 calories per slice, soft interior, crisp exterior when toasted)
• 2 large Eggs (Room‑temperature, free‑range if possible)
• 2 slices American Cheese (Mild flavor, melts quickly)
• 1 tsp Butter (Unsalted, softened)
• to taste Black Pepper (Freshly ground for best flavor)
• a pinch Salt (Kosher or sea salt)

Instructions

1. Toast Bread

   Place the two slices of flax whole grain bread in the toaster and toast until golden brown, about 2 minutes.

   Time: PT2M

2. Butter the Toast

   While the toast is still warm, spread a thin layer of softened butter on each slice.

   Time: PT1M

3. Preheat Skillet

   Heat the non‑stick skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds until a drop of water sizzles.

   Time: PT30S

4. Fry Eggs and Melt Cheese

   Add a small pat of butter to the skillet, crack one egg, season with pepper and a pinch of salt. Cook until the whites are set but the yolk is still runny, about 2 minutes. Gently flip, place a slice of American cheese on top, and cook another 1 minute until the cheese melts. Repeat for the second egg.

   Time: PT4M

5. Assemble Sandwich

   Place one cheese‑topped egg on a buttered toast slice, then top with the second slice of toast. Press lightly and cut diagonally if desired.

   Time: PT1M

   Enjoy the sandwich while hot, optionally with a side of fresh fruit or coffee.
