3 Ways to Cook the Eggs:
- Scrambled – crack the egg into a bowl and whisk well. Add to the hot skillet and allow to cook until mostly set. Fold the outer parts of the cooked eggs over the middle until you have an English muffin sized square of eggs. Flip and cook until completely set.
- Over Easy – Crack the egg into the hot skillet, cook for 2-3 minutes until the whites are set, but the yolk is still runny.
- Over Hard – Crack the egg into the hot skillet. Cover and cook for 3-5 minutes until the whites and yolk are set.
How to Make Breakfast Sandwiches:
- Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Spray with olive oil.
- Cook the eggs (see above for 3 ways) in the hot skillet.
- Meanwhile, add the English muffin to a toaster and toast until desired doneness.
- Add the cheese to the bottom half of the English muffin, top with any desired protein, the cooked eggs and then the top of the English muffin.
- Serve hot.
