Ingredients (for 1 serving)
-
2 slices of bread (sourdough, whole wheat, or your favorite)

1–2 large eggs

1–2 slices of cheese (cheddar, American, or pepper jack work well)

1 tbsp butter (divided)
-
Salt & pepper to taste

Optional add-ins: cooked bacon, ham, avocado, spinach, or hot sauce
Instructions
-
Scramble the eggs:

Whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Melt ½ tbsp butter in a pan over medium heat, then pour in the eggs.

-
-
Assemble the sandwich:
-
Butter one side of each bread slice with the remaining ½ tbsp butter.
-
Place one slice (butter-side down) in the pan, then add cheese, scrambled eggs, and any extras (like bacon or avocado).
-
Top with the second slice of bread (butter-side up).
-
-
Grill to perfection:
-
Cook over medium-low heat for 2–3 minutes per side, pressing lightly with a spatula, until golden brown and the cheese is melted.

-
Serve & enjoy:
-
Slice in half and enjoy immediately while hot and gooey!

Tips
