egg sandwich
Yolky lunch option
An egg sandwich is eggs prepared in some fashion—fried, scrambled, or as an omelet—served between slices of bread or in a roll.
The classic version includes cheese and often bacon or sausage, making it a breakfast staple: I grabbed an egg sandwich on my way to work.
Egg salad sandwiches, made with chopped hard-boiled eggs and mayonnaise, are a distinct category.
