BACON, EGG AND CHEESE TOAST CUPS

Steps:

• Divide the bacon slices between two large sauté pans set over medium-low heat and cook the bacon, draining the grease as needed, until it is almost fully cooked but still pliable enough to bend. Set the bacon aside.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• Lightly flour your work surface then unfold each of the puff pastry sheets onto your work surface. Using a rolling pin, roll each sheet to seal together any creases.
• Using a sharp knife, cut each sheet of puff pastry into nine squares. Add a puff pastry square to each muffin tin cup, pressing it firmly into the bottom and sides so that the edges hang over the sides of each cup. (You will have six extra squares, which can be re-frozen or used to make quick and easy Puff Pastry Cookies.)
• Place a strip of cooked bacon inside each cup so that the ends stick out of the cups.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs with the milk and a pinch of salt and pepper.
• Divide the cheese among the muffin tin cups then ladle the egg mixture into each muffin tin cup.
• Bake the eggs for 18 to 22 minutes until the puff pastry is golden brown and the eggs are cooked through. Remove the egg cups from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before using a knife to loosen them around the edges.
• Sprinkle the egg cups with the chopped chives and serve immediately.

QUICK AND EASY BACON, EGG AND CHEESE

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs, milk, a pinch of salt and a couple of grinds of black pepper in a small bowl until smooth and combined. Heat the vegetable in a medium non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.
• Once the skillet is warm, pour the egg mixture in and allow it to cook undisturbed until the edges are set, about 1 minute. Use a spatula to gently lift the edges of the egg and allow the uncooked egg to run underneath. Once the egg is fully set, about 4 minutes, place the slices of cheese in the center of the egg. Carefully lift each side of the egg and folder it over the cheese to form a square package about the size of your toasted bread. Flip the eggs over gently, keeping the package intact, and allow the folded side to cook and melt the cheese, about 30 seconds more.
• Assemble the sandwich by layering the bacon on 1 slice of toast and then topping with the warm eggs. Top with the remaining slice of toast and serve immediately.

BACON, EGG AND CHEESE TURNOVERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Put a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook, flipping once, until crispy, about 7 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to cool, then roughly chop. Set aside.
• Whisk together 4 of the eggs in a medium bowl until homogeneous, then stir in the chives and mozzarella.
• Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture into the hot skillet and cook until the bottom is set. Use a spatula to gently pull the bottom cooked parts to the sides of the skillet to make space for more of the mixture to cook. Repeat this gentle pulling process one or two more times until a majority of the mixture is set, then transfer the mixture to a bowl. The eggs should still be be quite wet, as they'll continue to cook in the oven. Season them with salt and pepper and a few shakes of hot sauce.
• On a work surface, roll out the puff pastry to a 10-by-15-inch rectangle. Cut into six 5-inch squares. Top each of the squares with a schmear of scallion cream cheese, then a bit of the bacon and finally a spoonful of the scrambled eggs, distributing them evenly and leaving a 3/4-inch border around the edges.
• Beat the remaining egg with 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl to make an egg wash. Brush the edges of the puff pastry squares with the egg wash, fold them in half to make rectangles and pinch the edges to seal them well. Transfer them to the prepared baking sheet, placing them 1 inch apart. Brush the tops with the egg wash and top with the Everything Bagel Topping. Bake until golden brown; begin checking for doneness at 30 minutes. Let cool slightly and serve with ketchup. Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated in a toaster oven.
• Combine the sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried minced garlic, dried minced onion and salt in a small bowl.

SUNNY'S BACON, EGG AND CHEESE SLIDER CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the rolls: Place the rolls on a nonstick-foil-lined baking sheet or in a baking dish with the sides and bottom coated with cooking spray. With a serrated paring knife, carve out a wide circle on the top of each, cutting down and leaving about 1/2-inch of bread at the bottom. (You need to keep the bottom sturdy, so you don't want to cut all the way to the bottom.) Get your fingers in there and pull out the plug of bread. Press down the bottom with your fingers, leaving room for your filling.
• For the filling: Evenly divide the bacon into the recesses in the bread. In a medium bowl, mix the nacho cheese sauce with the Cheddar-jack blend. Divide evenly and spoon or pipe into each recess above the bacon. Crack an egg into each cavity.

BACON, EGG AND CHEESE "TOASTER TARTS"

Steps:

• For the crust: Pulse the flour, shortening, sugar, vinegar and fine salt in a food processor until the mixture looks like a fine meal. Add the butter, and pulse until it is in pea-sized pieces. With the motor running, stream in 1/4 cup ice water, and continue processing until the dough begins to come together, about 15 seconds. If there's still unincorporated flour, add up to 2 more tablespoons ice water 1 tablespoon at a time, running the processor continuously until the dough forms a smooth satiny ball, about 30 seconds more. Remove the dough ball, and place it on a piece of plastic wrap. Use the wrap to mold the dough into a brick shape, approximately 8 by 2 inches by 1 inch thick. Wrap the dough in the plastic, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
• For the filling: Cook the bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until browned and crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a medium bowl. Drain off all but 1 tablespoon of the fat from the skillet, and return the skillet to medium heat. Whisk in the flour, and cook, whisking constantly, until light brown, about 1 minute. Slowly whisk in the milk, and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 1 minute more. Transfer the flour-milk mixture to the bowl with the cooked bacon. Add the egg yolk, Cheddar-Jack, Parmesan, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and a few grinds of pepper, and stir to combine.
• To assemble: Position 2 oven racks in the top and bottom third of the oven, and preheat to 400 degrees F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
• Cut the dough crosswise into sixteen 1/2-inch-wide rectangles. Flour a work surface and a rolling pin. Working with one rectangle at a time, roll the dough to about 4 1/2 inches by 2 1/2 inches by 1/8 inch (1 roll lengthwise with the pin and 1 roll crosswise ought to do it, then use hands to shape the dough into a rectangle).
• Divide the 16 dough rectangles between the 2 prepared baking sheets. Place about 2 teaspoons of filling at the center of each of 8 rectangles, and spread with an offset spatula, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Top with the remaining 8 rectangles. Crimp the edges together with a fork to seal. Brush the top of each tart with the beaten egg, prick with the fork 8 times and sprinkle with a pinch of flaky sea salt.
• Bake the tarts until the dough is golden brown, 22 to 24 minutes, reversing the baking sheets top to bottom halfway through. Let the tarts cool on the baking sheets until cool enough to touch, about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

BACON, EGG, AND CHEESE BAKED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Spread bread on a rimmed baking sheet and let dry out, 4 to 6 hours. Preheat oven to 375°F. Toss tomatoes with oil; season with salt and pepper. Spread on one side of a parchment-lined 12 1/2-by-9 1/2-inch rimmed baking sheet (quarter sheet pan). On other side, arrange bacon in as close to a single layer as possible (it's okay if slices overlap slightly).
• Roast until tomatoes are wrinkled and beginning to soften and bacon is about three-quarters cooked, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven; transfer tomatoes and bacon to a plate. Discard fat and remove parchment. Wash sheet, then brush with oil or butter.
• In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Dip bread slices one at a time in egg mixture, turning to coat, then arrange on sheet in shingled, overlapping layers (we arranged ours in three rows of four).
• Pour remaining egg mixture evenly over top (it will pool on top and sink through to bottom, but will be absorbed as it sits). Sprinkle with parsley and cheese, then top with bacon and tomatoes. Refrigerate, covered, at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake French toast, uncovered, 15 minutes, then reduce temperature to 350° and continue baking until puffed and cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes more. Let cool slightly before serving.

BACON, EGG, AND TOAST CUPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly butter 6 standard muffin cups. With a rolling pin, flatten bread slices slightly and, with a 4 1/4-inch cookie cutter, cut into 8 rounds. Cut each round in half, then press 2 halves into each muffin cup, overlapping slightly and making sure bread comes up to edge of cup. Use extra bread to patch any gaps. Brush bread with remaining butter.
• In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium, until almost crisp, 4 minutes, flipping once. (It will continue to cook in the oven.) Lay 1 bacon slice in each bread cup and crack an egg over each. Season with salt and pepper. Bake until egg whites are just set, 20 to 25 minutes. Run a small knife around cups to loosen toasts. Serve immediately.

BACON, EGG AND CHEESE SANDWICH

Steps:

• Bring a large piece of parchment paper or foil to the stove. Heat a medium (10-inch) nonstick skillet over medium. Grease the skillet generously with butter. Place one side of the roll in the skillet, cut-side down, and toast until golden, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer the toasted half to the parchment, cut-side up. Repeat with more butter and the other half of the roll. (The second side will take less time, as the pan gets hotter.)
• If you're using beef or turkey bacon, add 1 tablespoon butter to the skillet. Add the bacon and cook over medium until browned and crisp, 2 to 4 minutes per side. As the bacon cooks, press it down with a spatula. (This helps the fat render, producing crunchier bacon.) Turn off the heat and transfer the bacon to the bottom roll. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of the fat.
• Pour the eggs into the skillet, season with salt and pepper and set over medium-low. Using a spatula, pull the egg toward the center and tilt the skillet so the egg runs to the empty part of the skillet. Repeat this all around until the surface of the egg is no longer runny but still shiny. Add the cheese on the top, tearing into smaller pieces for even coverage. Cook, undisturbed, until the top of the egg is matte, just a minute. Remove from heat, fold the egg in half, and then in half again. Transfer to the bottom roll.
• Add ketchup and hot sauce as desired, then add the top roll and press down. Wrap in the parchment, smush again, and let sit for a couple minutes for all the elements to steam together. Cut in half and eat.
