Ingredients
-
6 slices of whole wheat bread – hearty and fiber-rich, these form the wholesome base of the sandwich
-
6 slices of cheddar cheese – sharp or mild, cheddar melts beautifully into the layers
-
6 slices of beef strips – smoky and crisped to perfection
-
4 medium eggs – scrambled until fluffy and tender
-
Salt – to taste
-
Black pepper – freshly ground, to taste
-
Fresh parsley – finely chopped, adds brightness
-
Green onion – chopped for a savory, mild bite
Directions
-
Crisp the Beef Strips
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the beef strips in a single layer. Cook until golden brown and crispy around the edges, turning once. This should take 3–4 minutes. Once done, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat. -
Scramble the Eggs
In the same skillet (no need to wash – the beef flavors enhance the eggs), crack in the eggs. Stir gently with a spatula over medium-low heat. Cook until just set and creamy. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper to taste. Turn off the heat and set aside. -
Assemble the Sandwiches
Lay out 6 slices of bread on a clean surface. On each slice, layer the ingredients as follows:-
A slice of cheddar cheese
-
A generous spoonful of scrambled eggs
-
1 or 2 slices of crispy beef
-
A sprinkle of fresh parsley
-
A handful of chopped green onion
Top each with another slice of bread to create 3 hearty sandwiches.
-
-
Optional Toasting
For an extra-crispy texture and melty cheese, toast the assembled sandwiches on a dry skillet for 1–2 minutes on each side until the bread is golden brown and the cheese begins to melt. -
Serve and Enjoy
Slice the sandwiches in half if desired and serve immediately while warm. Pair with your morning coffee or a tall glass of juice.
