- Cook your beef breakfast sausage or beef bacon until browned and crumbled. Drain excess fat and set aside.
- Lightly scramble your eggs until just cooked through.
- Finely dice any vegetables you plan to use.
- Prepare your breakfast sauce.
- Spoon a generous tablespoon or two of your chosen breakfast sauce onto each toasted English muffin half.
- Sprinkle a light layer of shredded cheese over the sauce.
- Spoon a portion of scrambled eggs over the cheese layer on each muffin.
- Distribute your cooked beef sausage or beef bacon and any diced vegetables evenly over the eggs.
- Finish with a more substantial sprinkle of shredded cheese over all the toppings.
- Carefully transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for 8-12 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let cool for a minute or two before serving. Optionally, sprinkle with fresh chives or red pepper flakes.
