Day 56: Bacon and Egg Grilled Cheese

Original Source: Simply Cooking

If you look at the picture above and you AREN'T instantly hungry, I don't want to know you. Fried egg??? Bacon??? Cheese???? Gimmmmmeeeee now!

So, we ate this this weekend and the verdict? Keeper. It tasted very much like one of my favorites, Egg in a Basket with bacon. However, ours were pathetically slim compared to the picture so I cant help but wonder if something in that sandwich is double stacked. Regardless, try it. It's easy and the whole family loved it. (Both teens, however, requested theirs without cheese.)

Meanwhile see my less than stellar photos below.

Now mine looks nowhere near as yummy as the above pic, but they tasted pretty darn good. We chose to forgo the syrup dip... Just not a syrup fan anyway. But I did dip in a bit of Dijon mustard and wow! Really excellent.  

My guy loved it enough to eat 2. I might have, if they weren't so calorie heavy. (I roughly figured it as around 450 cals per triangle sandwich. My daughter was absent and the 15-year-old boy... I don't think he was a big fan. He DID say it was better with the mustard, but he also does NOT like cheese, so that was an automatic strike against this right away.

If you try it, let me know. Powdered sugar... never thought I'd like it at all!
