This sammy is so loaded with good stuff—ham, cheese, spinach and tomato, plus a gooey fried egg—you may need a knife and fork. And a napkin.

Ingredients

  • 4 English muffins

  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, softened

  • 4 eggs

  • Pinch each salt and pepper

  • 4 slices Swiss or mozzarella cheese

  • 4 slices Black Forest ham

  • 1 cup spinach leaves

  • ¼ cup tomato bruschetta topping

Instructions

  • Spread butter on both sides of English muffins. Cut a 2 1/4-in. circle in centre of each top using a cookie cutter.

  • Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium. Add muffin bottoms and cut-out centres. Toast, flipping halfway, about 3 min. Divide among plates.

  • Place muffin tops, cut-side down in pan. Crack eggs into holes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, flipping halfway, until egg white is set but yolk remains runny, 2 to 3 min. Top with cheese.

  • Spread bottoms with bruschetta, then layer with ham and spinach. Sandwich with muffin tops.
