Carly’s Expert Tips
- Low and slow eggs. Medium-low heat keeps them soft and creamy.
- Leave some bacon fat. It flavors the eggs and prevents sticking.
- Warm the biscuits. They taste freshly baked.
- No hot honey? Mix honey with a dash of hot sauce.
Make It Your Own
- Sausage: Use a sausage patty.
- Pepper jack: Swap the cheddar for pepper jack.
- Avocado: Add sliced avocado.
- Gravy: Spoon sausage gravy on top.
Make-Ahead and Meal Prep: Assemble sandwiches without the honey, wrap individually, and freeze. Reheat in the microwave or oven for grab-and-go breakfasts.
