FREEZER SAUSAGE, EGG, AND CHEESE BREAKFAST SANDWICHES

FREEZER SAUSAGE, EGG, AND CHEESE BREAKFAST SANDWICHES

INGREDIENTS:

• 12 eggs, lightly beaten


• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste


• 1 pound ground pork


• 1 teaspoon crushed fennel seeds


• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme


• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder


• 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano


• Pinch of ground cayenne pepper


• 2 teaspoons canola oil


• 6 English muffins, split and lightly toasted


• 6 slices yellow American cheese

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil a 9 x 13 baking dish or coat with nonstick spray.
2. Season eggs with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Add eggs to the prepared baking dish. Place into oven and bake util eggs are just set, about 13-15 minutes; let cool 5 minutes. Cut out 6 rounds using a 3 1/2-inch biscuit cutter.
3. In a large bowl, combine ground pork, fennel seeds, thyme, garlic powder, oregano, cayenne pepper, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
4. Divide the pork mixture into sixths and shape each portion into 3 1/2-inch patties.
5. Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, add patties to the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side; let cool 5 minutes.
6. Place one sausage patty over the muffin bottom. Top with 1 slice cheese and 1 egg round, and then cover with another muffin top to create a sandwich. Repeat with remaining English muffins to make 6 sandwiches. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and place in the freezer.
7. To reheat, remove plastic wrap from the frozen sandwich and wrap in a paper towel. Place into microwave for 1-2 minutes, or until heated through completely.
8. Serve immediately.
