Ingredients

• 2 pieces Vegetarian bacon strips
• 1 whole Egg
• 1 slice Cheddar cheese slice
• 1 whole English muffin
• 1 tablespoon Butter
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Split the English muffin in half and toast both pieces until golden brown.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil.

Step 3

Place the vegetarian bacon strips in the skillet and cook them for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted, crack the egg into the skillet.

Step 5

Sprinkle the egg with salt and black pepper. Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until the white is set, but the yolk remains runny, or cook longer if you prefer a fully cooked yolk. Gently flip and cook for another minute if desired.

Step 6

Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of the egg and let it melt.

Step 7

Assemble the sandwich by placing the cooked bacon strips on the bottom half of the toasted English muffin.

Step 8

Place the egg with melted cheese on top of the bacon.

Step 9

Cover with the other half of the English muffin and serve immediately.
