Start your day right with these make ahead breakfast sandwiches! Hearty and delicious, this protein-packed meal is easy to make and ready to grab when you're in a rush, plus they only require simple ingredients and 15 minutes of prep.
Ingredients
- 6 individual English muffins cut in half
- 6 large eggs
- 3 slices bacon cut in half
- 3 whole sausage patties
- 6 slices cheese
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 portion butter or cooking spray
Instructions
- Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels. Set aside.
- In the same skillet, cook the sausage patties until fully cooked. Remove and drain on paper towels. Set aside.
- Lightly grease the skillet with butter or cooking spray as needed, then fry the eggs. Season the eggs with salt and pepper. Cook until the whites are set and the yolk is cooked to your preference, about 3-4 minutes. If you prefer firmer yolks, flip the eggs and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Remove the eggs from the pan and let cool slightly.
- Assemble the sandwiches by placing the bottom half of each English muffin on a clean surface and then adding a slice of cheese on each muffin half. Add a cooked egg on top of the cheese. Top three with two halves with bacon and the other three with a sausage patty. Cover with the top half of the English muffin.
Notes
- Toasting your English muffins before assembling adds a subtle crunch and prevents them from turning soggy when frozen and reheated.
- Let your cooked ingredients cool completely before building the sandwiches as warm fillings can create steam and make the bread soggy.
- Before freezing, spread a thin layer of your favorite sauce or dressing like pesto, chipotle mayo, or honey mustard on the muffin for added flavor.
- Add sautéed mushrooms, tomatoes, caramelized onions, or fresh spinach to your sandwiches before freezing. Try whisking diced bell peppers or herbs into scrambled eggs for more flavor and color.
- Mark each sandwich with the date and type of filling so you can grab exactly what you want without digging through freezer mystery meals.
- Store sandwiches in a single layer until frozen, then stack. It saves space and helps them keep their shape.
