    Spinach Omelette Breakfast Sandwich

    Breakfast

    To be honest, I actually ate this spinach omelette breakfast sandwich for lunch yesterday. Yet because eggs are doomed to only be called “breakfast” sandwiches (unless topped on a burger patty, which sometimes those are even called “brunch burgers”), the title had to reflect as such. But if you want to eat this bad boy for lunch today, honestly, I don’t blame you.

    I’m calling this a “spinach omelette” breakfast sandwich because I actually fried up a two-egg omelette to go inside this sandwich. I find folding up eggs in an omelette makes eating a breakfast sandwich much easier. Scrambled eggs just get everywhere.

    The next combination of items honestly just came from what’s in my fridge. That’s kinds of how recipe development has been going these days. I look in the fridge, imagine something to cook up, and if it goes well, I snap a pic! I’ve been cooking a lot home recently (just made my salted caramel chocolate blondies again),.


    I’m not too picky about the meat that I put in my breakfast sandwich. However, I will admit that if there’s a package of Taylor Ham in the fridge, I almost always pick that over anything else. I grew up on Taylor Ham—both my parents are from New Jersey and it’s basically a staple food group in that state. They recently stocked up my fridge with some Taylor Ham, so because I had it on hand, I absolutely used it in this sandwich.

    Topped with some fresh-cut tomatoes, seasoned with salt and pepper, and oh my yum.

    Would I have loved to have this on a New York bagel? Duh. But, when you’re in a self-quarantine, you have to work with what you got. And in my fridge, I had a pack of Dave’s Killer Bread Everything Bagels. They’re a bit on the sweeter side for me, but they worked well with all of this salty and savory goodness going on in this sandwich.

    These recipes are versatile for whatever time of day you want to enjoy them. Breakfast? Brunch? Lunch? Linner? Brinner? Whatever. It works.
