I have a new love. It's not even really all that innovative, but tweaks just enough to be nearly perfect.
Jimmy Dean sage patty sausage
Tillamook sharp cheddar
egg, fork scrambled then fried in butter
Cobblestone slider rolls
The slider rolls are the key difference. Bought them because they were on the day-old rack, but inspiration struck when I was trying to decide if I wanted toast with breakfast.
Just the right size for the sausage patty, different enough from biscuits and croissants to shake things up. A nice touch of sweetness in the dough to juxtapose flavors. Not crumbly or flaky, so the sammiches don't fall apart.
[note - a couple of my breakfast pet peeves is are, mismatched breakfast sammich ingredients, ie tiny sausage on a huge biscuit or vice versa, and crumbly sammiches that make a mess, particularly if taken to go]
Two is a little light, four is too many if you also have potato/fruit/oatmeal sides, but not too much to be a decent entire workday breakfast.
I had two with a side of oatmeal and coffee, two more made up to snack on later.
