how to toast English muffins-
How do you toast your English muffins for breakfast sandwiches? I enjoy toasting my English muffins in the oven. It works much better than a toaster. I add the cheese over the muffins and the cheese melts while the English muffin toasts. Meanwhile, I slice the remaining ingredients and cook the egg, it’s a perfect quick breakfast.
margherita pizza inspired-
The inspiration for this egg sandwich came from my love for Margherita pizza. It has cheese, fresh tomatoes with basil and a balsamic glaze. I just loved the combination and thought why not try something like with an egg sandwich. It was love at first bite! Truly was. I made it like 3 days in a row and make it on a regular basis now.
If you’ve never tried Margherita pizza from a good restaurant or pizza oven – you are missing out.

I make this wonderful glaze and double the portion. Then, just keep it refrigerated and use as needed. Brown sugar may be substituted with honey if you prefer honey.
