On the Go Breakfast Biscuit Sandwiches
We eat a ton of Cheerios–like an obnoxious amount. When they are BOGO, I buy as many boxes as the store will allow me, and go back the next day and get some more. We’re that bad. Cheerios are great, and they’re suuuper easy to make, but they won’t keep you going as long as an on the go breakfast biscuit sandwich.
I’m all about easy, so most of the time, Cheerios wins out. Easy is cool. But I decided I would get a little ambitious this week and make some breakfast sandwiches to freeze so the hubs and kids can pull them out of the freezer every morning and have something a little more exciting and not feel hungry an hour later.
It’s a lot less expensive to make everything at home than buying something premade. However, let me just say ahead of time that if your days are full and you don’t want to spend an hour in the kitchen, it’s ok to buy frozen, premade food. You can get some really yummy biscuits in a can (or frozen), sausage patties, and even premade eggs for your sandwich. This will cut your time for making the on-the-go breakfast biscuit sandwiches in half.
I started out making the biscuits. I have a biscuit recipe, but they didn’t fluff up as much as I wanted them to. So, I grabbed a recipe from All Recipes for buttermilk biscuits. Luckily, I didn’t eat all the biscuits before loading them down with the eggs, cheese, and sausage. Seriously, it was not easy to eat only a couple of the biscuits. I mean, look at them. Flaky, buttery, delicious.
I’m of the opinion that my grandfather was the luckiest man alive. My grandmother made biscuits every single day—yes, every day—from scratch. Does it get better than that? Um, no. And then, they’d add butter and homemade jelly. Ok, I am getting off-topic. But how can you not get off-topic when it comes to hot buttered biscuits? Yeah, you can’t. It’s impossible.
Next, I fried the sausage in my skillet.
I cooked up the eggs next. I cooked six eggs at once, and that made things go a little faster.
Finally, I added the food to the biscuits. Easy peasy. Seriously, this is such a simple task.
- I will repeat it again, you’re not a bad mom if you buy this stuff frozen and put the sandwiches together. You’re trying to feed your family some good food, so go for it!
I wrap the on the go breakfast biscuit sandwiches in clear wrap and then pop in a bag before they go in the freezer, so they keep and don’t end up with frostbite.
I put the biscuits sandwiches in a baggie before I put them in the freezer. Now, they’re all snug in their bag and ready for someone to grab them for breakfast.
Let me know, in the comments, how yours turn out. I’d love to hear from you!
