Main Ingredients

Green Goddess Dressing

Method

Cooking the Bacon

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, add the bacon slices and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Flip occasionally to ensure even cooking. Once done, place the bacon on a paper towel to absorb excess grease.

Cooking the Eggs

  1. 2

    Scramble the Eggs

    In the same skillet with a little bacon grease, crack the eggs into the pan. Scramble them gently with a spatula until fully cooked, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Making the Green Goddess Dressing

  1. 3

    Prepare the Dressing

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, parsley, chives, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Assemble the Sandwich

  1. 4

    Putting It Together

    Slice the hard rolls in half. Spread a generous amount of the Green Goddess Dressing on the bottom half of each roll. Layer with crispy bacon, scrambled eggs, and cheddar cheese. Place the top half of the roll on the sandwich and press down slightly to hold everything together.
