Ingredients
Scale
- 1 fresh bagel (plain, sesame, everything, or whole wheat)
- 2 eggs (fried, scrambled, or omelette-style)
- 1–2 slices cheese (cheddar, American, Swiss, or preferred)
- 2–3 slices firm, ripe tomato
- 1 tsp butter or oil for cooking
- Optional: fresh spinach, cooked bacon or sausage, avocado slices, hot sauce
Instructions
- Split and toast the bagel until golden and crisp.
- In a skillet, melt butter or heat oil. Cook eggs to your preferred style (fried sunny-side or over-easy, or scrambled).
- Place cheese slices on the eggs while still in the pan. Cover briefly to melt.
- Layer the bottom half of the toasted bagel with the cooked eggs and melted cheese.
- Top with tomato slices and any optional additions like spinach, bacon, or avocado.
- Close with the top half of the bagel. Serve immediately or wrap for a meal on the go.
Notes

- Customize with your favorite cheese, bread, and optional add-ins.
- Wrap sandwich in parchment for portability or meal prep.
- Use a microwave or skillet to reheat, adding fresh tomato after warming if needed.
