Sometimes you want nothing more than a fully cooked breakfast before a busy day. However, when I'm running short on time, I make hasty decisions that involve a drive-through window. Not anymore! I'm committed to making easy egg sandwiches using high-quality ingredients ahead of time so that I can simply grab and go. Here's how we do it:

This recipe will get you started in the morning, and you can be sure that all of the ingredients are fresh and healthy. It also hasn't been basking under a heat lamp for an undisclosed amount of time. You can even make them ahead of time so you can have a healthy starter every morning.

At the heart of these easy breakfast sandwiches are Handsome Brook Farms eggs, which are available nationally at select retailers. My local Sprout's carries them. Just like those mystery eggs on those gas station or drive-thru sandwiches, not all eggs are not created equal.

Pasture-raised eggs, like Handsome Brook Farm eggs, can contain twice the amount of omega 3’s, 38% more vitamin A and 23% vitamin E than conventionally raised eggs. Handsome Brook Farm Eggs are pasture-raised organic eggs that come from organic-fed, pasture raised hens. An all-natural diet and freedom forage outdoors give Handsome Brook Farm eggs their trademark golden-orange yolk and rich, delicious flavor.

Handsome Brook Farm uses a network of small family farms with smaller flocks so they can ensure farmers get the fair wage they deserve and their hens have space, attention, and the love they need to produce the best quality eggs so you can taste the difference. Here's how you can get your healthy omelet fix, starting with Handsome Brook Farm eggs in the morning with the ease and convenience of, well, a convenience store:
