Mike eats his breakfast on the go.
It's usually a Jimmy Dean breakfast sandwich on his way to work. So I thought I
would give it a try and make some for him. Am I going to get up early and cook
him breakfast everyday before he goes to work? Nope, not a chance, but I will make several at
a time and freeze them.
I
got some tips off Facebook. I think the
best one was to weave the bacon, it stayed flat. Another tip was too bake the
eggs in a muffin pan so they areround and all the same shape and make a nice looking breakfast sandwich.
Here's how I did it
4 Eggs
4 English muffins
4 slices of bacon
2 sausage patties
4 slices of cheese
butter
pan spray
I sprayed ramekins with pan spray. I
decided not to use the muffin pans because I thought the egg would be too
thick. Cracked the egg and put it in the ramekin. I then broke the yolk and slightly scrambled it. I baked them in the toaster oven @350 for 13 minutes.
(I didn't want to heat up the kitchen
with the oven in this heat)
I cut the slices of bacon in half and
did a "basket weave" with 4 of the slices (so 2 full slices) and then
fried them. They stayed flat and perfect for the sandwiches. Cooled bacon on a paper towel
Fried the sausage patties then cooled
on a paper towel.
Let the eggs cool for a few minutes
then removed them from the ramekins to continue cooling.
Toasted the English muffins and let
them cool.
When everything was cool enough not
to melt butter & cheese I assembled the sandwiches,
Buttered the muffins, added the bacon
or sausage, added the egg and topped with cheese. They were individually wrapped
in Glad press & seal and then frozen.To reheat, remove the plastic wrap,
wrap in paper towel, microwave on 30% or defrost for 2 minutes then cook on
100% for 45 seconds.
I'm not that great or creative with
my cooking. I only cook because I have to, but I must say these came out pretty
good.
