Ingredients

  • 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

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!

Notes
