Breakfast Sandwich Tips & Tricks!

Change up the flavor profile… Swap out the sliced apple + cheddar for other combos: sliced pear + crumbled blue cheese, sliced tomato + fresh basil... Check your fridge, and be creative.

Get saucy! Add some honey mustard to your breakfast sandwich, give it a shake of hot sauce, or add a spoonful of salsa. YUM.

Taking it to go? Give your sandwich a quick wrap in aluminum foil to lock everything in place for travel. Then wrap a paper towel around the outside—it'll protect your hand if the foil is hot from the food, and you can use it as a napkin while you eat later!
