- 8 rashers smoked streaky bacon
- 4 slices thick white bloomer bread
- 1 tbsp rapeseed oil
- 2 eggs
- 80 g (2.8 oz) monterey jack cheese grated
- 2 vine tomatoes sliced
- salt
- 2 small handfuls baby spinach
- mayonnaise I like Heinz light
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!
