Scrambled Egg Sandwich with Avocado

This sky-high scrambled egg sandwich on whole wheat bread is layered with avocado, slices of sharp cheddar, and spinach. Enjoy for breakfast or lunch!

scrambled egg sandwich from the side this !

When I was young my mom used to make a scrambled egg sandwich for lunch all the time! Just two pieces of bread with scrambled eggs in between. Why didn’t she simply have scrambled eggs and toast on the side? I have no idea! Scrambled egg sandwiches were her thing. (She also loves raw oatmeal, dry cereal in a bowl, cucumber and cream cheese sandwiches, and rum and cokes!) Every now and then she would make me this sandwich, and I always enjoyed it.

Admittedly, even now I don’t think to put scrambled eggs into a sandwich often. Wouldn’t it be easier to put a fried egg or egg patty on a sandwich? Wouldn’t it make more sense to wrap scrambled egg in a burrito so the egg wouldn’t fall out? Yes. Yes to both of those. But there is something about the texture of a super fluffy egg in a sky-high sandwich that you just have to try to believe!

How I make my scrambled egg sandwich

Mom’s version was super simple – I don’t think she included avocado or spinach. But I of course, like to up both the flavor and nutrition game. Plus with all of these ingredients, it makes an all-in-one lunch!

  1. First toast the bread. This helps it stand up to the egg.
  2. Then scramble your eggs! 1-2 works.
  3. Smash the avocado slices into one side, top with spinach.
  4. Put egg and cheese on the other.
  5. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  6. Very carefully press sandwich together.
  7. Hold tightly while you eat!

    My mom made these for us whenever we were home sick from school. I love that memory. But probably on white bread, and definitely without avocado or spinach. This version sounds delicious!

    My husband makes fried egg sandwiches with ketchup (blech!!) Oh well, differences make life interesting. Under more recipes from Mom you need to link her macaroni and cheese. It is a family favorite and is always requested by my nephews. The best and easiest mac and cheese recipe ever.

      YES her mac is the best!! I can’t remember publishing the recipe – do you happen to have it bookmarked?

        I do not have it bookmarked. I believe you served it at family / friend gathering and you linked the recipe to your mom’s blog??

      Oh I’m so pleased. I used to teach English and one of my students wrote up the recipe for her How To Essay! That’s how I got it.

    I make something similar and it’s a favorite of mine. Adding avocado is genius! I will definitely be hunting down some avacado.

    We are on the same wavelength, friend! This morning, Matt and I split the last of our Easter asparagus frittata (made with inspiration from one of your older recipes!), and I enjoyed it between two slices of Dave’s Killer Bread toasted with mozzarella + wilted greens, mashed avocado, and local Swaggerty’s sausage. A crisp apple on the side completed my breakfast. Loved the fluffy texture as you said!

    My grandma always make med fried egg sandwiches with a toasted bagel. Hmmm. It was so delicious and then my mom introduced me to fried egg sandwiches with white bread and not toasted and that’s equally as yummy. I always add cheese and tomato. If I have it, I do add spinach too. I love fried egg sandwiches. During softball season they become a quick dinner staple.

    I eat this quite often … minus the cheese and spinach, usually on rye toast. It’s a great breakfast and keeps me full for a loooong time!

    As a kid, my sister used to make scrambled egg sandwiches for me every weekend and I used to make her toast because that was the only thing within my culinary reaches(which hasn’t grown a lot since then). I haven’t had these in a while so this gave me a great walk down memory lane. Thank you for sharing 🙂 I would definitely try it out.

    I love that you added avocado to this sandwich. I’m also trying to switch to a healthier lifestyle and started to mine for healthy recipes like yours. Also, I’m training with SportMe home workout app, and I managed to get rid of some pounds. Your blog posts are super inspiring for me in this phase, thanks!
