Egg in the Hole:

4 Eggs
4 Slices of White Bread (or Substitute Wheat Bread)
Small amout of Cheddar Cheese (or Substitute American Cheese)
6 TBS Melted Butter
Salt and Pepper

Use a drinking glass or coffee cup to make the holes in the bread slices, about three inches in diameter. Add a few tablespoons of butter to a skillet or electric frying pan (square works best) on medium heat. Place bread with holes in skillet flip over so both sides are coated with butter before adding eggs. Crack one egg for each hole and carefully add to the hole, slightly hold down the bread, this keeps the egg from spreading out from underneith. Dash with salt and pepper. When eggs begin to set on one side flip over the eggs in the hole with a large spatula. It helps to add a bit more of melted butter to the skillet as you flip them over. Continue both sides until eggs are well set.

Use the removed holes to make some little round Grilled Cheese Sandwiches. Place a few slices of Cheddar Cheese between two bread rounds. Then use the same method of as above until well toasted.

Serve with a fresh glass of orange juice and any other side order such as hash browns or bacon. Serves Two.
