Grilled Cheese For Breakfast

The other night, following supper, I began craving a grilled cheese sandwich so I put it on the menu for breakfast.  But what about the egg you asked – not to worry.  Since my go-to breakfast is a fried egg atop a piece of cheese toast, I decided two pieces of grilled bread made just as must sense.

I started with the sandwich by spreading a little mayo on the bread and adding Cabot sharp cheddar and the thinly sliced white part of some green onions. 

The bread outside was buttered and into a skillet it went over medium-low heat.  After flipping I added a lid to aid with cheese melting and started a sunny-side-up egg frying in another pan, also with a lid and a little water.

For the final dish, I just topped the sandwich with the egg, added the green part of the onion and this is the result – sided with some grapes and fresh raspberries that Bev had assigned me to eat while she was gone.

Since bread grilled-in-butter is up a notch from toasted bread, you know it had to be delicious, and since it's just a little more effort, this may be my new go-to meal.  I would have added some sliced tomato and/or crispy bacon to the sandwich but we were out – I’m trying to use up what we have on-hand.
