The ABG Breakfast Sandwich

Grilled cheese but make it breakfast! 🤤 This over the top cheesy sandwich is what breakfast dreams are made of! I used only 5 ingredients from @traderjoes to make this masterpiece…I’m calling it The Original ABG Grilled Breakfast Sandwich! That’s a mouthful, I know. Avocado, Bacon, and Gruyere are about to change your sandwich game forever. #TJsGrilledCheeseContest

Here’s what you’ll need:
• Everything Bagel
• Gruyere Cheese 
• Organic Egg
• Avocado
• Uncured Apple Smoked Bacon 
*Found all these ingredients at @traderjoes

Here’s the recipe:

Let’s get to the good stuff first.

  • You are going to start by pan frying 3-4 strips of bacon. It’s your sandwich, so cook it how you like best, but I recommend letting it crisp up. You’ll appreciate the crispness once it’s all stacked in the gooey grilled cheese. 
  • Once it’s crispy, remove bacon from your pan and set aside on a paper towel. 
  • Now, let’s put that bacon fat to good use! Cut the everything bagel in half and place each half down in your pan. You are going to lightly toast the inside first, then flip over and let’s get the outside of the bagel warm and toasty. Remove the bagel top once both the sides of it are toasted and set it aside.
  • Now for the fun part! Add 2-3 ounces of sliced Gruyere to the bottom half of the bagel while still over medium heat. Cover with a pan lid or just a little tinfoil to help that cheese get nice and melty. 
  • While the cheese is melting, keep using that bacon fat and crack an egg in the pan and fry it for about 1 minute on each side. Don’t overcook your egg. You’ll appreciate the runny yolk! While your egg fries, slice up 1/2 an avocado. 
  • Now start to assemble this glorious sandwich. Take that ooey gooey gruyered bagel bottom and begin stacking the fried egg, bacon, avocado slices, and bagel top. Voila!! Enjoy right away for ultimate yumminess!! 🤤🤤

Not going to lie, this was one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had! Cooking everything in the bacon fat is definitely not the healthy way to go but it is the delicious way to go!
