Egg and Roasted Veggie Breakfast Sandwiches … wake up to this delicious and easy to make vegetarian breakfast recipe!
I used to have no problem getting up early, but that has changed. Now it seems like most days I have to drag myself out of bed (although I am working on it).
One thing that I’ll always wake up early for is the promise of a good meal, like these Egg and Roasted Veggie Breakfast Sandwiches.
I absolutely love a good breakfast sandwich and have been known make my husband run out to get me one. Lucky for me, he’s usually happy to do so (well, maybe after a few complaints).
Egg and Roasted Veggie Breakfast Sandwiches
These yummy Egg and Roasted Veggie Breakfast Sandwiches were inspired a favorite morning sandwich, the Veggie & Monterey Jack Artisan Breakfast Sandwich from Starbucks. It’s basically a copycat of the recipe. And sadly, Starbucks doesn’t serve theirs anymore …. good thing I came up with this version, right?
The star of these Egg and Roasted Veggie Breakfast Sandwiches is the quiche-like baked eggs that are filled with roasted vegetables. And I can’t forget the gooey melted cheese and toasty bread … it’s breakfast perfection!
Give my Egg and Roasted Veggie Breakfast Sandwiches a try. I think you’ll find they’re the perfect way to start the day!
