Lately I’ve been on the search for the perfect Fried Egg Sandwich. Some say its the perfect “hangover” food, but I think its the perfect food when there isn’t anything in the house or when you just need to have breakfast for dinner. I was excited to come across this Fried Egg Sandwich recipe on the Zoe blog and even more excited to find out its from Martha Stewart (you know how I love her)!
I loved what Zoe said about this recipe, “is easily adaptable to whatever you have lying around the kitchen, so be creative!” The original recipe calls for white bread, gruyere and fontina cheese, as well as fresh oregano. I hope you enjoy this sandwich as much as I did!
Happy Cooking 🙂
