6 large eggs
3 slices bacon cut in half
3 medium sausage patties
6 slices cheese I used Gouda
Salt and pepper to taste
Butter or cooking spray for greasing the pan

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels. Set aside.
3 slices bacon
In the same skillet, cook the sausage patties until fully cooked. Remove and drain on paper towels. Set aside.
3 medium sausage patties

Cook the Eggs:

Heat a small non-stick pan or a pan with 4 egg rings over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
6 large eggs, Butter or cooking spray
Crack an egg into each circle. Season with salt and pepper.
Salt and pepper
Cook until the whites are set and the yolk is cooked to your preference, about 3-4 minutes. If you prefer firmer yolks, flip the eggs and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Remove from the pan and let cool slightly.

Assemble the Sandwiches:

Place the bottom half of each English muffin on a clean surface.
6 medium English muffins
Place a slice of cheese on each muffin half.
6 slices cheese
For 3 sandwiches, top with a cooked egg and two halves of bacon.
For the other 3 sandwiches, top with a cooked egg and a sausage patty.
Cover with the top half of the English muffin.

Wrap and Freeze:

Wrap each assembled sandwich in parchment paper.
Place the wrapped sandwiches in a large Ziploc bag or airtight container.
Store in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Reheat and Enjoy:

To reheat, unwrap the sandwich from the parchment paper and wrap it in a paper towel.
Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes, or until heated through.
Alternatively, you can reheat in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for about 20 minutes, or until heated through.

Tips:

For a healthier option, use whole wheat English muffins and turkey bacon or turkey sausage.
You can also add vegetables like spinach or bell peppers to the eggs for added nutrition.
