Yield: 4 indulgent servings | Difficulty: A breeze!
Get ready to tantalize your taste buds with this delightful recipe that takes just 25 minutes from start to finish:
Ingredients you'll need:
- 1/2 stick (1/4 cup) Land O Lakes Butter with Olive Oil & Sea Salt – Because who doesn't love butter with a dash of olive oil and sea salt? It adds just the right kick!
- 6 large Eggland's Best eggs, lightly beaten – Nothing beats Eggland's Best for protein-packed, delicious eggs!
- 1/2 cup pre-cooked hot or Italian sausage crumbles – Whether you choose hot or Italian sausage, these savory crumbles are gonna rock your world!
- 8 slices Italian bread – Perfect for providing a sturdy foundation for our brinner-ified grilled cheese sandwich!
- 8 slices Land O Lakes Deli American Cheese – Melt-in-your-mouth, creamy, and delicious—what more could you ask for?
Let's get cookin':
- Melt 1 tablespoon of butter with the olive oil and salt in a 10-inch nonstick skillet. Once it reaches a sizzling point, you're good to go!
- Add the eggs and sausage crumbles. Sauté for 4-5 minutes over medium heat, stirring gently. Don't overdo it—allow the uncooked portion to flow underneath, cooking them to perfection!
- Remove the mixture from the skillet, set it aside, and keep it cozy and warm.
- Wipe the skillet clean with a paper towel, then spread about 1 teaspoon of Land O Lakes Butter with Olive Oil & Sea Salt on one side of each bread slice.
- Time to assemble the sandwiches! Lay one slice of bread, buttered side down, in the skillet. Pop on a slice of American cheese, followed by 1/4 of the cooked egg mixture, another slice of American cheese, and finally, the second slice of bread, buttered side up.
- Return the skillet to medium heat. Pop 2 sandwiches into the skillet, cooking for 4-6 minutes or until golden brown and the cheese is perfectly melted (go ahead, flip just once!).
- Once those babies are done (yum!), remove them from the skillet, keeping them warm while cooking the remaining sandwiches.
And voila! Savor this divine brinner grilled cheese creation every time you're looking for a quick-fix meal that doesn't compromise on taste. Bon appétit! 😋🍼🙌
