Ingredients
- 2 large bagels
- 4 large eggs (divided)
- 1 tablespoon butter (divided)
- 2 ounces cheese (sliced on box grater, divided)
- salt & pepper
Instructions
We start by slicing the bagels in half and toasting them lightly in the toaster oven.
While the bagels toast, we melt half of the butter in a nonstick pan on medium-low heat. We can only fit two eggs at a time, so we cook one sandwich at a time. Next time we may use the electric griddle so we can cook all of the eggs at once!
When the butter is melted and foaming, we crack two of the eggs on the clean counter and add to the pan. We cook for a minute and a half or so, and then flip with a spatula. We top each egg with a quarter of the cheese, cover with a lid, and turn off the heat. In a couple of minutes the cheese is melted and the eggs have not overcooked (adjust according to desired doneness).
We put the two eggs on one of the bottom halves of the toasted bagels and top with the corresponding top. We then repeat the cooking process for the other egg sandwich and serve.

Nanny and Gramps very much wanted to come to visit us two weekends ago, for our daughter's First Communion. But, at 90, travel is a daunting prospect. So, on Saturday, we took the first communion to them (at least the first communion dress).
The whole family had a great time visiting with them. The kids enjoyed showing off for their great grand parents. Nanny and Gramps especially enjoyed spending time with the baby who is the very definition of "a corker", as Nanny likes to say.
We are still recovering a bit from the trip. Eight hours of driving, even three days removed, takes a lot out of us. So it is nice to have the bagels to not only provide us sustenance, but to also remind us why we make the trip.
