Spanglish Sandwich

August 14, 2013

Ten years ago my family created our famous go-to breakfast sandwich based off the one from the film Spanglish.  It is so simple, but when made with ingredients from my mom’s garden, and organic produce… it is taken to the next level.

Egg Sandwich

Spanglish Breakfast Sandwich

Assemble the following between toasted sourdough toast:

  • Sliced heirloom tomatoes
  • Romaine lettuce
  • Sliced onion
  • Maple bacon
  • Sliced avocado
  • Fried egg
  • White cheddar cheese

004I recommend cooking the bacon, then frying the egg in the rendered bacon fat… shred the white cheddar on the hot egg and voila!  You also can put a little mayo on your toast, but I think it’s just as yummy without it!  Good morning!!!

Pasta Alla Carbonara – This was a super easy and yummy dish!  I love taking a very standard dish of basically bacon/eggs/cheese and using pancetta/eggs/pecorino romano makes it seem so much more chic.  Paired with a light salad this is the perfect meal. 178 180 192

Skillet Glazed Pork Chops with Caprese Couscous – Trader Joe’s boneless pork chops are a great option for a cheap and easy dinner.  It’s $5 for 5 cutlets and they cook in under 5 minutes.  Doesn’t get much better than that! Except for when you top them with a maple/dijon glaze 🙂
