    Made or Feb., 2008 Aussie/New Zealand Swap. Very good breakfast sandwich recipe. I used a multi-grain sourdough bread. I make a breakfast sandwich similar to this, but I never thought of cooking it in a skillet like a grilled cheese sandwich. Thanks for sharing such a tasty recipe, Lorie.

    This was good and easy to make. I followed the recipe as written. I used two slices of cheese as we like things cheesy and bacon. They were really tasty.

    This was unbelievable! I used light whole wheat bread and spray butter. Also, I did not use any meat. This was such a simple concept you would have thought I would have thought of this before!This will definatley be a frequent breakfast at our house! Thanks!

    a nice yummy sandwich, heated it in the panini press to cut down the fats and used low fat cheddar instead. Loved it.
