Notes
GF/DF: YES! As long as you stick to gluten-free bread. My FAVORITE for this is the rustic sourdough loaf by Schar that I find at my local Sprouts. I love it because I can slice it from the bottom up to get nice huge slices, while keeping them super thin. Maximum sandwich size without using more carbs than I want.
Want to bring fats down? Use one slice of bacon and swap your fried egg for egg whites. Want to bring protein up? More fried egg whites or extra ham will do the trick.
Tomatoes can make or break a sandwich in my opinion! If they’re beautiful and sweet, the thicker the better! If they’re nothing special, I’ll leave them thinner and maybe even marinate in balsamic vinegar for a few minutes to give them some life.
Don’t sleep on the fresh basil. xo
