Anyway, these are a little time-consuming to make, but you can make a bunch at a time and then have an easy breakfast for weeks. Totally worth it! I made 18 sandwiches this last time, but you can make however many you want (or however many your freezer will hold!)
(Tip: If you can get your husband to help you with this process, you can get a nice little assembly line going and it will speed things right along!)
Step 1: Bread
Toast english muffins (I use the 100% whole wheat ones). I just split them open and put them under the broiler for a few minutes until they are toasty!
Step 2: Cheese
Put one slice (or half a slice) of cheese on the bottom half of each muffin (I use 2% american).
Step 3: Egg
Crack one egg into a nonstick pan, sprinkle some salt and pepper on it, and use a spatula to sort of scoot it towards the side of the pan in order to keep it in a small contained space, so that the final product will fit on the english muffin. Turn the egg over, break the yolk, and again, keep it a good size using the spatula. Once cooked, put the egg on top of the cheese.
Alternative Option for Egg (easier option): Spray a microwave-safe mug or cup with cooking spray (I use my 1-cup glass Pyrex measuring cup). Crack one egg and scramble, or use Egg Beaters (or other egg substitute). Microwave until done (usually about 1 minute in my microwave).
Step 4: Meat
I've done this with turkey bacon and canadian bacon. Both are delicious. You could also use ham, or sausage, or no meat at all. Whatever floats your boat. Cook the meat as directed, put the meat on top of the egg, and put the "lid" of the english muffin on top.
Step 5: Package/Freeze
Wrap each sandwich individually in plastic wrap. Slide the sandwiches into a freezer bag, and freeze until ready to eat.
Step 6: Eat
Unwrap sandwich from the plastic, and heat in the microwave until heated through. In my microwave, I've found that wrapping it in a paper towel and microwaving for 1 1/2- 2 minutes is about right.
Delicious!!
