Tomato Basil & Smoked Gouda Breakfast Sandwich

  • Prep Time: 5 minutes
  • Cook Time: 10 minutes
  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: as many as you like!

Ingredients

Scale

For each sandwich:

  • 1 egg + 1 teaspoon tomato juice (or juice from bruschetta tomatoes)
  • 2 thin slices bread (I used my No Knead Peasant Bread)
  • A bit of light butter
  • 23 slices smoked gouda cheese
  • 1 medium tomato, sliced thin
  • Several fresh basil leaves
  • A bit of spicy brown mustard

Instructions

  1. Crack the egg into a small bowl, add the tomato juice and whisk with a fork. Sprinkle with Red Robin Seasoning (or your favorite seasoned salt) and fresh ground pepper and whisk a bit more. Heat a frying pan over medium heat, butter the pan (or spray with cooking spray), add the egg and let cook until set on the bottom. Flip it over and cook a few minutes on the other side. Remove from pan, set it aside and clean out any egg left in the pan.
  2. Spread a bit of light butter on the outside sides of the bread slices. Put one slice, butter side down, in the frying pan. Top with the cheese, then the tomato, then the egg. Arrange several fresh basil slices over the egg. Spread a bit of mustard on the inside of the other slice of bread and set it on top, mustard side down.
  3. Cover and cook, checking frequently, until the bottom of the sandwich is nice and brown and crunchy. Flip it carefully, cover and cook until the other side is nicely browned as well. Slide onto a plate and enjoy while it’s hot and crunchy!
