Description

These open-faced egg and cheese sandwiches are a comforting twist on the classic breakfast sandwich. A fluffy, savory scramble of eggs, milk, and finely chopped onions and green peppers creates a rich, aromatic topping. Served on buttered, toasted English muffin halves, the dish is finished with a slice of melted American cheese under the broiler. The combination of crispy toast, soft eggs, and gooey cheese makes for a satisfying meal that feels both nostalgic and indulgent.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter or margarine in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add the finely chopped onion and green pepper to the skillet.
  3. Saut the vegetables until they are tender, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  5. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet over the cooked vegetables.
  6. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally and pushing the cooked portions to the sides to let uncooked eggs flow to the center.
  7. Continue cooking until the eggs are set but still moist and fluffy.
  8. Divide the egg mixture evenly into 6 portions.
  9. Toast the English muffin halves and spread the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter or margarine on one side of each half.
  10. Place the toasted muffin halves on a baking sheet.
  11. Top each muffin half with a portion of the egg mixture and a slice of American cheese.
  12. Broil in the oven until the cheese is melted and lightly browned, about 2-3 minutes.
