🥪 Classic Egg Sandwich
🧾 Ingredients (serves 1)

👩🍳 Instructions
1. Cook the eggs
- Heat butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Crack eggs into the skillet and cook to your preference:
- Fried: Sunny-side up, over-easy, or over-hard

2. Toast the bread

- Flavor boost: Add a sprinkle of herbs (chives, parsley) or a dash of smoked paprika.
- Make ahead: Cook eggs in advance and assemble sandwich in the morning; heat briefly before serving.
