Instructions
Creating the Ultimate Breakfast Grilled Cheese with Scrambled Eggs and Bacon is straightforward. Follow these steps to prepare this delicious dish:
1. Cook the Bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Once done, transfer it to a paper towel to drain excess grease.
2. Scramble the Eggs: In the same skillet, crack the eggs and whisk them in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the eggs into the skillet and cook, stirring gently until soft and fluffy. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
3. Prepare the Grilled Cheese: While the eggs are cooking, butter one side of each slice of bread.
4. Layer the Sandwich: Place two slices of bread, buttered side down, in a separate skillet over medium-low heat. Layer each slice with a slice of cheese.
5. Add the Filling: Once the cheese begins to melt, add the scrambled eggs on top, followed by the crispy bacon. Top with another slice of cheese and a slice of bread, buttered side up.
6. Grill Until Golden Brown: Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, flipping carefully, until both sides are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
7. Serve: Remove from heat, slice in half, and serve immediately for the best experience.
