Instructions
Prepare the Bagels
- Slice the bagels in half and toast them until they are golden brown and crispy.
Cook the Bacon or Sausage
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side. If using sausage patties, cook them until fully browned and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
Cook the Eggs
- In the same skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet, and cook to your preferred doneness. For over-easy, cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Assemble the Sandwich
- Spread the remaining butter on the toasted bagel halves.
- Place a slice of cheddar cheese on the bottom half of each bagel.
- Layer with cooked bacon or sausage, followed by the cooked eggs.
- Add avocado slices, tomato slices, and fresh spinach leaves.
- Top with the other half of the bagel.
Serve and Enjoy
- Serve immediately while warm. Pair with a fresh fruit smoothie or a cup of coffee for a complete breakfast.
