Ultimate Breakfast Sandwich - a hearty sandwich loaded with two kinds of bacon, sausage, onion, egg, cheese, and a basil pesto mayo spread.

This Ultimate Breakfast sandwich is a great way to start the weekend.  It is very hearty and will sustain you through busy weekend activities.  For smaller appetites, this sandwich is perfect for sharing.

Ingredients

There are so many delicious components in this sandwich. 

• Bacon, turkey sausage, and Canadian bacon
• Grilled onion
• Fried egg
• Cheese
• Basil pesto mayo
• Toasted croissant

How to customize

• Swap out the croissant for toast, a bagel, or an English muffin. 
• Switch out the fried egg for scrambled, sunny side up, or over easy. 
• Add your favorite cheese. I love Pepperjack, but any favorite cheese will be tasty. 
• Add a slice of tomato or some lettuce. 
• Use pork sausage in place of the turkey sausage. 
• Serve this open-faced.

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• ▢ 1 croissant (sliced in half)
• ▢ 2 patties turkey sausage (pre-cooked)
• ▢ 2 sliced Canadian bacon
• ▢ 2 sliced bacon (cooked)
• ▢ 1 egg
• ▢ 1 slice cheese (Pepper Jack, Cheddar, or similar)
• ▢ 1 slice red onion
• ▢ 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• ▢ 1 teaspoon basil pesto ( store-bought or homemade)
• ▢ fresh basil leaves

Instructions

 

• In a small bowl, stir together mayonnaise and pesto.  Set aside.
• In a small non-stick skillet set over medium heat, add a drizzle of oil.  Saute the slice of onion until slightly softened and caramelized on both sides, being careful to keep the whole slice intact.  Remove the onion slice and set aside.
• In the same skillet, add the turkey sausage patties and Canadian bacon, heating until warmed through.  Remove from pan.
• To the same skillet, add another drizzle of oil and crack the egg into the skillet.  Cook the egg to your liking and top with a slice of cheese.  
• Meanwhile, toast the croissant and then spread a thin layer of the pesto mayo on each half of the croissant.  On the bottom half, layer the sausage, onion, Canadian bacon, egg with cheese, and bacon.  Top with fresh basil and the other half of the croissant.  Serve and enjoy!
