I love breakfast!
During the week I typically eat a bowl of cereal for breakfast. On the weekends, I love making yummy, scrumptious breakfast. Of course, I am usually too lazy in the morning to make it for actual breakfast. I figure real breakfast is meant for lunch.

This breakfast sandwich is super yummy and very quick and easy to make! |
I started by cracking one egg per ramekin. If you don't have a ramekin, use a small, microwave safe bowl. I have also seen people use a muffin tin in the oven similar to my mini egg cups recipe {this would be perfect for making more than what can fit in the microwave!}.
I added a splash of milk, pinch of salt and a sprinkle or two of black pepper. No need for dirtying measuring spoons here! I then scrambled them with a fork.

Cook eggs in the microwave at 30 second intervals until it starts cooking, then 15 second intervals until done. |
I cooked the bacon in the microwave too. I cover it up with paper towels and cook it for 7-10 minutes. This definitely adds time to the process. I suggest either skipping the bacon for a healthier version or using pre-cooked bacon if you are in a hurry.

I served my sandwiches with a side of tater tots. |
I did not put any condiments on these. The croissants were greasy enough without any condiments. With an english muffin or bagel, I would definitely butter that sucker up!
These turned out so fantastic! I am thinking about making a whole bunch to freeze and then bring with me to work throughout the week. Or perhaps I should make them at work with the break room microwave? I had a coworker who used to make scrambled eggs in the microwave all the time.
