The Best Breakfast Sandwich Ever!

Friday, August 13th, 2010

Before I start off writing about the BEST breakfast sandwich ever! I have to leave the disclaimer that I don’t have photographic proof of how amazing this really is!

Halloumi, Egg & Avocado Breakfast Sandwich
For those of you obsessed with Halloumi as the latest and greatest new food group, you need to try this out!

Ingredients
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 egg
3 one third inch slices Halloumi
3 slices avocado
2 tablespoons hummus
Macrina baguette

Heat up saute pan with 1/2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (or grill on panini press). Add Halloumi, let brown then flip. When golden brown and cooked on both sides, remove cheese from pan. Add 1/2 tablespoon olive oil to a same pan and fry egg. Have baguette sliced in half. Spread hummus on bread, add Halloumi, egg and avocado slices. Serve!

Serving size: 1 breakfast sandwich
