Plain bagel, 2 eggs, 2 slices of American Cheese.
Usually I mix some Kewpee mayo with Franks wing sauce. But I also usually use smoked Gouda or smoked Gruyère… I was out of both, so I grabbed the American slices and skipped condiments. It lacked flavor, however.
What condiments do you add to your breakfast sandwich?
Cholula Sauce

open face egg sandwich on sourdough toast. just eggs, salt, butter, and bread.
Chipotle mayo/spread if available. Mayo if not. Also got sauce. Depends what I have in the fridge
Chipotle mayo is a great condiment!
Always hot sauce.
I skip cheese and just do hot sauce on the egg. Sometimes I mix hot sauce with ketchup. I use white cheddar if I’m doing cheese for other ppls eggs.
Mayo + Sriracha
Bullseye BBQ sauce goes great with eggs and peppers.
I like to add Valentina hot sauce, and throw in some bacon.
saltpepperketchup
Definitely hot sauce of whatever type we have. I picked up some ghost pepper sauce from a holiday market the other month that is hot but also kind of sweet.
Ghost Pepper Sauce
Sweet
Yeah… ok. I’ll have to take your word on that
Once you acclimate to hotter sauces you can pick out some of the more soft notes. This one has some smokey aspects and I think some maple in it.
I have not had any ghost pepper sauces, but there are a number of other sweet hot sauces, chipotle raspberry, habanero pineapple are two popular ones. I mix chipotle raspberry into cream cheese for a great bagel topper, and pretzel dip.
I saw some raspberry habanero ice cream on deep clearance, no one bought it, it was from a local creamery and I love spicy things so I got it to try.
Loved it. Definitely a little, strange at first, but very good.
I go one of 2 ways depending on how I’m feeling with an egg n cheese sammy:
- Sweet: add some sort of jelly, jam, or preserves. Honey or syrup also work, but I prefer grape jam the most
- Zesty: mix mayo and mustard and add dill. This way essentially the breakfast sauce for McDonald’s bagel sandwich that I think they discontinued years ago. Reminiscent of deviled eggs
I tend to favor the sweet early in the morning. Momofuku makes a real nice chili crunch hot honey that goes well with just eggs & cheese.
If I’m adding sausage to the mix, I’ll use maple syrup and skip the hot condiments entirely.
🍞 🧀 🥚🐝 🍯
Just a little brown sauce (I like Stoke’s), but generally I feel like the egg yolk is sauce enough.
If I’m not feeling traditional then maybe a splash of Reggae Reggae sauce.
Salsa
Two words: Holon days
Salsa.
That goes in the Egg imo.
Salsa is a fantastic base for a lot of my dishes.
I use it as a top run burritos and sandwiches and other things.
