Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 6 large eggs (beaten)
- 8 slices Colby-Jack cheese
- 4 tablespoons soft butter (divided)
- 8 slices sourdough bread
Instructions
- Crumble the ground sausage in a large non-stick skillet. Cook over medium heat until browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the same skillet. Add the beaten eggs and scramble gently until just set.
- Mix the cooked sausage with the scrambled eggs in a bowl until well blended.
- Butter one side of each slice of sourdough. Place a slice in the skillet, butter-side down. Add a slice of cheese, a scoop of the egg-sausage mixture, another slice of cheese, and top with a second slice of bread (buttered side out).
- Cook the sandwich in the skillet over medium heat for 3-4 minutes on each side, until both sides are golden brown and the cheese is melty.
- Slice the sandwich in half and enjoy hot for the best experience!
Notes
For a twist, consider using sharper cheddar or adding fresh herbs to the egg mix. Serve with fresh fruit or a simple green salad.
