A savory, indulgent sandwich, Breakfast Grilled Cheese Recipe with soft scrambled eggs and sausage, will have you looking forward to breakfast.
You may remember another Breakfast Grilled Cheese sandwich that I shared, Double Fisted Fried Egg Bacon Avocado Grilled Cheese Sandwich. It was so well received by my family and readers that I wanted to make another breakfast sandwich.
This cheesy goodness has become a family favorite. It’s the boys’ go-to meal for breakfast and after-school snack because it’s quick and easy to make. They can make it without supervision. Also, this sandwich is packed with protein and for growing teenage boys I overlook the butter component.
Breakfast Grilled Cheese Recipe
Combining sausage with fluffy scrambled eggs is a game-changer for grilled cheese. It’s a keeper if you need a heartier breakfast.
I used Texas toast since it stands up good for grilling, but sweet rolls would be a great alternative if you don’t have sliced bread.
I made this Breakfast Grilled Cheese Recipe with Texas toast bread, a layer of cheese, a large round slice of sausage, and two scrambled eggs. For the cheese, I used Cheddar Colby. However, you can use whatever cheese you have on hand or that your family prefers. As well, you can fry the eggs if you prefer.
All of this goodness is grilled to crispy, buttery perfection.
The flavors are wonderful. Additionally, the textures of fluffy and creamy eggs, gooey and melty cheese, spicy and chewy sausage make for a wonderful meal.
