Weren’t expecting that, were you? I do have a soft spot for carbs, and they have created a lot of soft spots on my body—just ask my hips!</p> <p><span id="more-9227"></span>As a consequence, I enjoy cereal as a special treat for breakfast. The rest of the time it’s protein, baby. Even though I’ll eat salmon for breakfast or have a protein shake, 5 out of 7 days I’m eating some form of eggs. Much as I love them, I need a change of pace once in a while. Enter the bodega breakfast sandwich!</p> <p>I have to admit that I didn’t know what a bodega was and had to look it up. Turns out they are ubiquitous in New York City and are kind of like a Mexican 7-11 store. Some of these bodegas have a grille on the premises and offer customers hot sandwiches, this breakfast sandwich being one of them.</p> <p>Even though the sandwich contains all of the same ingredients that I eat so often, it tastes…different. The egg is poured into the pan similar to a thin crepe. From there you layer it with ingredients of your choice—I chose a piece of thinly sliced ham, a slice of Jarlsberg Swiss cheese, and a sprinkle of scallions. Next, you start folding over the egg and ingredients, making four folds to seal the contents. This creates a layering effect that gives it the most delightful texture when you sink your teeth into it.</p> <p>The sandwich is easy, tasty, and fast to throw together, too—so, even if you need to make two or three, it goes very quickly.</p> <p>For Valentine’s Day breakfast, I went whole hog and actually had <em>two </em>slices of bread as a personal sacrifice to getting a decent photo. Tomorrow, I’ll be back on the high road and limit myself to one slice of bread. Sigh…damn those carbs!</p> <p><strong>One year ago: </strong><a href="https://www.fransfavs.com/2018/01/white-fudge-cake/">White Fudge Cake</a></p> <p><strong>Two years ago: </strong><a href="https://www.fransfavs.com/2017/01/baked-shrimp-scampi/">Baked Shrimp Scampi</a></p> <p><strong>Three years ago: </strong><a href="https://www.fransfavs.com/2016/02/hidden-berry-cream-cheese-torte/">Hidden Berry Cream Cheese Torte</a></p> <p><strong>Four years ago: </strong><a href="https://www.fransfavs.com/2015/02/chocolate-desserts-for-valentines-day/">Chocolate Desserts for Valentine’s Day</a></p> <p><strong>Five years ago: </strong><a href="https://www.fransfavs.com/2014/02/best-ever-steak-indoors">Best Ever Steak – Indoors</a></p> <p><strong>Six years ago: </strong><a href="https://www.fransfavs.com/2013/02/coffee-creme-brulee/">Coffee Crème Brûlée</a></p> <p><strong>Seven years ago: </strong><a href="https://www.fransfavs.com/2012/02/molten-chocolate-cakes-with-mint-fudge-sauce/">Molten Chocolate Cakes with Mint Fudge Sauce</a></p> <h2><strong>Bodega Breakfast Sandwich</strong></h2> <p><a href="https://www.fransfavs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Printer-friendly-version-3.docx">Printer-friendly version</a></p> <p>Yield: One sandwich</p> <p><em>This makes one petite egg sandwich, but you can use the same method with two eggs and a slightly longer cooking time.</em></p> <p><strong><em>Ingredients</em></strong></p> <ul> <li>An English muffin, roll or two slices bread of your choice</li> <li>2 tsp. butter or oil</li> <li>1 egg</li> <li>Salt and pepper</li> <li>1 or 2 slices of your favorite cheese or a handful of grated or crumbled cheese—quantity depends on how gooey you want your sandwich to be</li> <li>Spoonful of sliced scallions, chives, ham, crumbled bacon, or whatever else you want in your eggs</li> </ul> <p><span id="i0ba801bf">These are u-shaped metal pieces which offer a great evidence of strength and reliability.

Heat a medium-sized skillet, preferably nonstick, over medium-high heat.</p> <p>Beat one egg with a 1/2 teaspoon water, a couple pinches of salt, and a few grinds of black pepper until just blended.</p> <p>Melt butter in your pan or brush it with oil, to thinly coat it. I like a combo of butter with a small amount of oil, about a tablespoon of each.</p> <p><a href="https://www.fransfavs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_1169.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-9233" src="https://www.fransfavs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_1169.jpg" alt="" width="1023" height="927" srcset="https://www.fransfavs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_1169.jpg 1023w, https://www.fransfavs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_1169-300x272.jpg 300w, https://www.fransfavs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_1169-768x696.jpg 768w, https://www.fransfavs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_1169-700x634.jpg 700w, https://www.fransfavs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_1169-332x301.jpg 332w" sizes="(max-width: 1023px) 100vw, 1023px" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.fransfavs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_1170.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-9234" src="https://www.fransfavs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_1170.jpg" alt="" width="1023" height="1235" srcset="https://www.fransfavs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_1170.jpg 1023w, https://www.fransfavs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_1170-249x300.jpg 249w, https://www.fransfavs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_1170-768x927.jpg 768w, https://www.fransfavs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_1170-848x1024.jpg 848w, https://www.fransfavs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_1170-700x845.jpg 700w, https://www.fransfavs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_1170-332x401.jpg 332w" sizes="(max-width: 1023px) 100vw, 1023px" /></a>Pour in the egg and roll it around so it coats the pan as a thin crepe would.
