Sandwich

What the heck is that? Fair question. It was my egg sandwich today for breakfast.

Eggs

I usually cook three eggs from the local egg farm for breakfast. Nice to practice the "know where your food comes from" principle when possible 馃槈

Pepper and garlic

Brought in a jalapeno pepper from the garden and we have some garlic harvested earlier this summer.

Bagels

I always start toasting the bread while cooking. Two sesame bagels today. I wish I has some good local bagels but these are sadly grocery store bagels.

Sauteing

First step is coating the pan with butter while also sauteing the garlic and some previously not pictured onions but they are also from the garden.

Eggs in pan

I add in the eggs and fold the onion and garlic over onto the eggs.

Fresh basil

We keep some basil in the kitchen in water this time of year. Also from garden.

Eggs with basil

I usually add the basil to the eggs but it would probably be better added to the tomatoes on the sandwich at the end.

Toasted bagel

The bagels are toasted. I usually add butter because hey I'm not getting any younger, might was well eat tasty food.

Eggs on bagel

Sometimes the eggs fit nicely on the bread, sometimes I trim them to fit.

First sandwich

Then I sliced some fresh tomatoes from the garden and added the sliced peppers on top. Nice colors. I like spicy food and the garlic plus onions plus fresh peppers gave this sandwich some kick. Later this summer my wife will start making salsa with basically these ingredients. I love her salsa over my eggs and its like a super easy shortcut to this recipe 馃槅
