Indulgent egg-and-bacon sandwich

This breakfast is basically a warm hug.

Sometimes, and especially after a week of trying-your-best-to-eat-healthy, you just need a little bit of indulgence on a weekend morning. Breakfast in the form of a hug, basically. Which is exactly what this egg-and-bacon sandwich is.

INGREDIENTS:

2-4 bacon rashers
2 T canola oil
3 free range eggs
Boerenkaas cheese, a few slices
2 slices bread
Honey mustard, for serving
Pesto or sriracha sauce, for serving

METHOD:

Cook bacon in a pan over a medium heat on both sides until just crisp. Set aside.
Add oil to the same pan and crack in eggs. Just before the egg whites set, stir through the yolks using a fork or chopsticks to create a marbled effect.
Flip the eggs and cook for another 30 seconds.
Place a few slices of Boerenkaas cheese, or any cheese of your choice, on a slice of bread (we used a croissant-style bread), and spread with a generous layer of honey mustard.
Top with the bacon and egg, pesto or sriracha mayo, and the top slice of bread.
