The BLT Fried Egg-and-Cheese Sandwich is the perfect breakfast treat that combines the classic BLT flavors with a fried egg-and-cheese twist. The sandwich is known for its crispy bacon, juicy tomatoes, and lettuce, which is then topped with a fried egg and a slice of cheese in between toasted bread. It is a popular breakfast item in diners and cafes across America, where it is often served with hash browns and a cup of coffee. The sandwich can also be customized by adding other ingredients like avocado, onion, or pickles to suit personal taste preferences.

Instructions

1.	Fry the bacon over medium heat for 4-5 minutes until crispy and brown. Set aside on paper towels to drain excess oil.
2.	In the same pan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Crack the egg and cook it sunny-side up for 2-3 minutes. Set aside once done.
3.	Spread mayonnaise on one slice of bread, place the butter lettuce, tomato slices, and bacon on top. Add Monterey Jack cheese on the other slice of bread.
4.	Place the fried egg on top of the bacon and then place the slice of bread with cheese, mayo, lettuce, and tomato on top of the egg. Cut in half and serve hot.
