Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recipe
 

Well, I took an old idea and Americanized it (made it big, fattening, and hearty). I hope you all try/enjoy it. It's cheap, easy, and fast.

It's also about 450-460 calories once calculated. Which really ins't too terrible considering its filling and almost a meal in itself.

You'll need:
3 Pieces of whole grain Toast
2 pieces of American Cheese
1 Jumbo egg
Butter
Salt
Pepper

Here are the instructions, but basically, you are making a triple decker grilled cheese with an egg in the middle.

Interesting take on a "bulls eye." One question though . . . where's the bacon?!?!

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

Yummy!!!:dr

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

I believe it's originally called an egg in a basket.

Bacon was an idea, but that would almost double the calories.

Been known as a "toad in a hole" as well.

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

thats funny!

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

add bacon and it's an instant heart attack

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

I have always called that a "pig in a blanket."

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

pig in a blanket is a hotdog rolled in a criossant roll

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

This sounds like a great recipe, but...

American cheese? You gotta be kidding me. Processed cheese stuff???

Love the recipe, but I'll be trying it with some other kind of cheese...
colby, baby swiss, provolone, mild brick, 10yr old white cheddar, lorraine swiss, mozarrella, etc...

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

You're right, I meant to type "egg in a blanket."

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

the processed american has a lower melting point... it works best for me.

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

That's a "bird in a nest" or a "one eye".

Delicious none the less.

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

I know all about the lower melting point... But a good colby and/or cheddar has a melting point that isn't far off. It is all about the taste...

OK, I admit it - I'm a cheese snob. Call it a curse. Call it whatever you like.

I do like a runny yoke. I will have to try this with another cheese and see if I can do the same with it.

I guess I shouldn't worry about it too much about how "YOU" make it, if it were cigars, I'd tell you to smoke what you like and the blazes with what anybody else thinks. I guess I should take my own advice and stick my nose outta your business about what cheese you use.

Please accept my apologies.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

no apology necessary, we all love cheese! Come on now!

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

Don't worry, when I saw the American Cheese on there I had the same thought. It's the Wisconsin in ya. :tu

I always heard it called "Rocky Mountain Toast"... I'm sure there are a ton of names for this.
I do like the recipe though- I'll have to try it sometime!! Thanks!!

What's a calorie? :confused:

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

right! :d

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

As bass ackwards as it is, my wife has always called in "egg with hole in the middle", so now the whole family calls it that. She doesn't even know why she calls it that, I'm guessing it was a "cute" screw-up when she was little, and it stuck.

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

Yep egg in a basket. Delicous.

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

Thanks for the idea for todays breakfast. It was oh so good.:dr

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
 

MJ is jewish, I don't know if bacon is such a good idea ;)

Re: Triple Decker Tower Breakfast - My First Recip
