Who Needs McDonald's?

Given the fact that the nearest McDonald's is at least six blocks in either direction, and the fact that the wind chill is currently 25 below zero, and the fact that I'm lazy and it's 5:30 am, I decided to make my own breakfast sandwich. (Even though, I am curious to check out this new McSkillet Burrito they're pushing.)

This exercise also allowed me to cook some bacon in the cast iron skillet that I've been trying to re-season, and to utilize the griddler.

Here are the ingredients:
2 slices of Bacon - 160 cal.
2 eggs - 140 cal.
2 slices of bread - 200 cal.
1 slice of cheese - 50 cal.
hot sauce - 0 cal.
Total - 550 cal.

Eat one of these three times a day and you'll lose weight.
Sure, there's the cholesterol, fat and ensuing heart disease, but at least you'll look good.

Good for hangovers, too. Not as effective as just getting drunk again, but tasty.

Another great option would be what Mike introduced to us as the Grandpa Lew sandwich (not sure if there is a family patent on this recipe or not):

Take 2 slices of buttered toast, cover one slice with yellow mustard and add a fried egg.

An instant family favorite. Delicious.
