Breakfast in a Snap – Poached Egg, Ham and Cheese Breakfast Sandwich

In the past when I was short on time and needed to get to work before the crack of dawn, you’d find me going through a certain restaurant’s drive-thru buying their breakfast sandwich. But this got to be pricey.

So, I decided to take charge of my spending and my time and make my breakfast homemade instead.

It’s really easy to do if you know how.

Now I’m all for quick and easy in the morning. Besides no one I know really has the time to “gourmet-it” everyday, so why not streamline the first meal of the day with something simple like a breakfast sandwich?

Cooking Tip: Love the idea of a gourmet breakfast sandwich? Add sautéed spinach or homemade pesto for a delicious change.

I start off by preparing my Easy Poached Eggs in Ramekins per the recipe instructions.

While you are waiting for the eggs to cook, toast the English muffins and heat the Canadian bacon or ham in the microwave for 30 seconds or until warm.

Then, lay out all of the plates and ingredients and assemble away.

In no time at all, the sandwiches are ready to go. Easy-peezy.

This is why I love this sandwich so much. Time to serve and enjoy!
