Monster Breakfast Sandwich

Monster Breakfast Sandwich

This could also be called the artery clogger, but I thought Monster sounded better, maybe, maybe not. Fried eggs, bacon, cheese, yeah it’s good.  Okay, here’s the story behind this sandwich.  I have been helping my husband with some manual labor.  I must say kudos to all those out there who endure hard manual labor everyday all day long (including my wonderful husband!!).  I enjoy it, but I am not used to it, being more of a computer nerd, pencil pusher type, therefore I whine, a lot!  With all of that whining and working I get really hungry. So for breakfast I made this huge sandwich to get me going and keep me going.  I’ve never had an avocado for breakfast before, but it was actually a real compliment to the fried eggs and of course it was a great creamy addition to the bacon.  I might be afraid to calculate calories here, but I didn’t get hungry again until supper time.  It is huge but it is so filling. When my teenage son saw the picture, he insisted that I make him one for supper.  He loved it.   Arteries be danged, you gotta try this!
