Recipe: Omelet and Breakfast Sandwiches





In this week's Pathmark supermarket circular, I noticed that a carton of 18 large eggs is selling for $1.69, Banquet Brown 'N Serve Sausage Links or Patties is $1, and Pillsbury Grands Biscuits are $2 (use the $1 off 2 coupon here and get the cans for $1.50 each).

Putting them all together, I can make my own breakfast sandwiches just like the famous "Golden Arches" and save!
Total cost for all the ingredients: $4.19 and makes 8 breakfast sandwiches.

Before we start, we must first learn the technique of how to make a basic omelet.
Here is a video of Julia Child showing us just how it is done:



Ingredients
  • 1 box of Banquet Brown 'N Serve Sausage Patties
  • 1 can Pillsbury Grands Biscuits (I prefer Southern Style)
  • 8 eggs
  • butter or oil to cook the eggs
Directions

  1. Prepare and bake biscuits as per manufacturer's instructions on can.
  2. While biscuits are baking, prepare and cook sausage patties as per manufacturer's instructions on box.
  3. Using an 8 inch non-stick pan, cook the eggs omelet style 2 at a time.
  4. Flip the omelet in half and then cut in half with a spatula.
  5. To assemble the sandwich, cut a biscuit in half sideways and lay half the omelet and then a sausage patty and then top with other biscuit.
  6. Continue cooking the rest of the eggs the same way.
This is a recipe to make all the breakfast sandwiches at once (great for a family) but you can just bake the biscuits and then prepare the eggs and patty on the day that you are going to eat one (or two).

I don't season my omelet with salt & pepper as the biscuit and sausage have salt and seasonings already.
