Steak and Egg Sandwich
These hearty Steak and Egg Sandwiches are a filling and delicious way to start your day (or end it!)
Breakfast...honestly it's probably the most versatile meal of the day, in my opinion. You can have breakfast foods any time of the day, breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Lunch and dinner foods don't work so well for breakfast though, a burger at 7 am? No, thank you!
If you haven't guessed from previous posts, my family often has breakfast foods for dinner. Often it's pancakes or an omelet, but last week we tried something completely new, different, and completely delicious! We had Steak and Egg Sandwiches.
The concept of adding steak to a breakfast sandwich was completely new to me. We're no stranger to breakfast sandwiches, but they typically consist of an egg with cheese, between two slices of English muffin. This breakfast sandwich turns it up a notch! Mike and I both loved them, and they are a filling dinner, especially when paired with a side of fruit. We ended up with enough for leftovers too, and they were just as good the next day.
I found this recipe on Nicole's blog, PicNic. As I was searching for the perfect recipe for this month's Secret Recipe Club, I came across a variety of delicious recipes like Pizza Pinwheels, Caramel, Apple, and Almond Pancakes, Apple Caramel Scrolls, and Chili Chicken Pita Bread Pizzas (notice a breakfast and pizza trend?). Nicole's blog is relatively new to me. I "met" her a few months ago when she made my pizza casserole for her secret recipe. I loved browsing through her recipes, and reading her stories. There are quite a few recipes I'll be going back to again!
Steak and Egg Sandwiches
Serves 4
Ingredients:
4 ciabatta rolls
8 slices bacon
2 thin sliced steaks (mine were labeled for carne asada)
6 eggs
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1. Cook bacon until crispy, then set aside.
2. Place steaks in a hot skillet and season with steak seasoning or salt and pepper. Cook until done to your liking, mine took about 3 minutes per side. Then set aside.
3. Beat the eggs and milk. Then cook like an omelet in a skillet. (Don't fold the eggs over though.) Sprinkle the cheese over the eggs and let the cheese melt.
4. To assemble the sandwiches, cut the egg into 4 equal pieces, cut the steaks in half. Place the egg slice, steak, and 2 slices of bacon (broken in half, if desired), on a toasted ciabatta roll.

Coffee--Your Way! {Hamilton Beach Giveaway!}
How do you take your coffee? Black? Cream? Sugar? In a pot? Or just one cup? Now you can choose any way you want it!
I have to admit, I am not a coffee drinker, but that doesn't keep me from being excited about the new Hamilton Beach 2 Way Flex Brew Coffee Maker. I have family members who love their coffee, namely my Dad, and since he watches Summer two days a week, I always make sure to have coffee in the house for him. He was excited when I showed him my new coffee maker for him to test out.
Here are some things we loved about the Hamilton Beach 2 Way Flex Brew Coffee Maker:
*It's flexible! If you want just one cup of coffee (or hot chocolate, in my case!), you just pop a K-cup into the machine or fill the provided filter. If you need to make a pot of coffee, you can do that too!
*No need for 2 separate coffee makers taking up valuable real estate on your kitchen counter!
*The single serve side has an adjustable cup rest so you can use a regular coffee mug, or fill a travel mug!
*You can PAUSE the coffee pot, grab your cup of coffee, and then start it again to finish brewing the pot!
*If you have friends over, and only one person wants coffee, you can make just one cup! Or, if everyone wants some, you can make a whole pot!
Now that you know how much I love it, would you like to win one of your own? Use the rafflecopter form below for your chance to win! (If you don't win this time, you can purchase one for yourself at Walmart!)
