Ingredients

- 2 eggs see note
- 2 Tablespoons Bacon crumbles or two slices of cooked bacon
- 1 ounce cheese sliced (or a bit more--enough to cover bread)

Instructions
- Place a skillet on medium heat and heat until hot. Spray with non-stick spray. Crack two eggs in the pan, then break the yolks and stir in slightly. Top with crumbled bacon. Flip when firm on bottom side.
- Butter the outside of two slices of bread. Top one piece of bread with cheese on the non-buttered side. Set the bread butter side down in the skillet and place the cooked egg on top of the cheese. Top with the second piece of bread, butter side up. Reduce heat to medium low.
- Grill until the bottom slice of bread is golden then flip the sandwich. Continue grilling until both sides are golden and the cheese is melted, adjusting the heat as needed.
- Cut in half if desired and serve immediately.
