Breakfast Sandwich

Ingredients:

• cheese

Biscuit:

• 8 cups flour
• 4 Tbsp. baking powder
• 4 tsp. salt
• 1 cup shortening (Crisco)
• 3 cups milk

Easy Egg "Omelet"

• 1 dozen eggs
• 1 lb. of cooked sausage, ham, or bacon (you can also use steamed)
• Vegetables if desired as an addition or for a vegetarian version
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1 tsp. Pleasoning or seasoning salt
• 1/4 to 1/2 tsp. black pepper
• 1 minced jalapeno pepper (optional)

Directions:

Biscuit: Combine dry ingredients in large bowl. Cut in shortening until mixture looks like meal. Stir in milk. Dump dough on lightly floured counter and knead lightly about 25 times. Roll out dough to 1/2 inch thick. Cut with a 3 1/2 inch biscuit cutter. (I use a drinking glass) Place on ungreased baking sheet.

Let rest for a few minutes and then bake at 450 degrees F for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool biscuits and slice in half before freezing in bags. This makes about 24-28 biscuits.

Easy Egg "Omelet": Beat eggs well. Add milk, sour cream, seasoned salt, pepper and minced jalapeno if using. Beat well. Pour into a greased 9 X 13 inch pan. Sprinkle meat and/or veggies over the egg mix.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes. Cool and cut into 12 squares. Freeze in individual bags. (I usually make 2 pans at a time using 2 different meats)

To prepare sandwich slightly thaw egg square in microwave. Put on biscuit and heat through, about 1 minute depending on microwave. Add 1 slice of cheese and heat for a bit more until cheese starts to melt. This makes a great sandwich to eat on the go.

Note: Pleasoning is not sold in stores unless you live in Wisconsin or a neighboring state. It is sold online and I simply got hooked on their original version, but any seasoned salt will work.

Source: The biscuits are from an old Betty Crocker cookbook and the egg mixture is something I played around with until my husband was happy with it. I tried adding cheese to the eggs before baking, but he liked the slice on top and you do get more cheese flavor with less cheese (therefore less calories).
