In-A-Hurry Breakfast Sandwich

(LET'S JUST START OUT BY SAYING THIS IS MY MOST FAVORITE COFFEE MUG...EVER!)

In-A-Hurry Breakfast Sandwich Ingredients: (also known around here as "Quickie Eggs", if you skip the "sandwich" part...)
1 egg
Splash of water (no more than 1 Tbsp.)
1 slice American cheese (or shredded, if you prefer)
Salt & pepper as desired
1-2 slices bread, English muffin, croissant, etc. (it might be a little big for an E.m., but experiment)
1 microwave-safe bowl
1 fork
1 paper plate

CRACK egg in bowl.
ADD splash of water.
WHISK together with fork until well-blended.
ADD salt & pepper now, or when cooked.
POP in the microwave and cover with paper plate (eating side down over the bowl).
MICROWAVE on high 1 minute (may vary, depending on strength of microwave).*
LIFT plate, add 1 slice of cheese (or shredded, if you prefer), and replace plate, while you....
TOAST 1 or 2 slices of bread/English muffin, etc.--your choice.
When done, you could BUTTER the toast/muffin if you wish, or leave it dry.
FLIP the plate over. Your cheese is melty now.
USE a spatula or something to scoop out your egg/cheese onto your toast, which you can eat off the plate.
VOILE`! You have a quick breakfast sandwich kids can even make, and it's portable for on the way to school or the office (or in my case homeschool with a warm, toasty breakfast kids can help with or make themselves).

VARIATIONS: Throw in some chopped onion, tomato, peppers, bacon, sausage, ham, etc. Or mix with salsa first...add bacon, sausage, ham...the list goes on...

BEST SERVED WITH A DELICIOUS CUPPA COFFEE!!

BONUS: WAY fewer calories and fat than a drive-thru or store-bought breakfast sandwich, and WAY cheaper, but still with protein!
