Ingredients
- 8 rashers smoked streaky bacon
- 4 slices thick white bloomer bread
- 1 tbsp rapeseed oil
- 2 eggs
- 80g monterey jack cheese grated
- 2 vine tomatoes sliced
- salt
- 2 small handfuls baby spinach
- mayonnaise I like Heinz light
To serve (optional):
Instructions
- Heat the grill to high. Grill the bacon to your liking, and toast 2 slices of the bread under the grill, on one side only.
- Meanwhile, heat the rapeseed oil on a high heat in another frying pan. Crack in the eggs and fry them until the whites have just set (2 to 3 minutes).
- On the untoasted side of the 2 slices of bread, top each slice with grated cheese and melt under the grill for about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Toast the other 2 slices of bread in a toaster or under the grill.
To assemble the sandwich:
- Take the bread that has been toasted on both sides, and spread one side with mayonnaise. Then layer the bacon, a handful of spinach and tomato on each slice. Season the tomato lightly with salt. Top the tomato with a fried egg. Now place the slice of toast with grilled cheese on top of the egg.
- Enjoy this delicious sandwich for breakfast, brunch or lunch on it’s own, or for dinner with some chunky oven chips on the side!
