Notes

  1. Sweetened condensed milk - To substitute, use 2 teaspoons honey and 1 teaspoon of heavy cream for 1 Tablespoon of sweetened condensed milk.
  2. Scrambled eggs - For soft, creamy scrambled eggs, cook on medium low heat and gently stir with a flat spatula until the eggs begins to set. Turn off the heat and remove the pan from the burner. It will still continue to cook in the pan for soft, fluffy scrambled eggs.
Reheating:
  • Microwave: Wrap the sandwich in a paper towel and microwave for 30 seconds at a time until warmed through and the cheese is melted.
  • Oven: Wrap the sandwich in foil and reheat at 350 degrees F for 7 to 10 minutes or warmed through.
Leftovers: This sandwich is best when eaten fresh but you can store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
