When it comes to breakfast, we all have our favorites. And for me… this Bagel Sandwich is IT. I’ve been ordering this very sandwich for years at my favorite bagel shop… so I decided it was probably time to make my own. And I’ve never been so glad about anything in my entire life.

It’s a simple sandwich, really. Bacon, eggs, cheese, veggies, sauce. But there’s something about the combination of flavors and textures that’s just SO addictive. I literally crave it multiple times a week.

And the really great thing about it? It’s incredibly easy to personalize. Don’t like bacon? Use sausage instead (I especially love it with turkey sausage!) You can literally switch up anything from the type of cheese to the type of bagel and everything in between. I mean… I’m not sure why you’d want to since it’s SO GOOD as is! But then again… we all have our favorites, right?
