Ingredients
– 4 slices of bread (your choice, such as sourdough or whole wheat)
– 4 large eggs

– 1 tablespoon butter (for grilling)
– Salt and pepper (to taste)

Instructions
Creating the Ultimate Breakfast Grilled Cheese with Scrambled Eggs and Bacon is straightforward when you follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Once done, place it on a paper towel to drain excess grease. Reserve some bacon fat in the pan for the eggs.
2. Scramble the Eggs: In the same pan, crack the eggs and whisk them with salt and pepper. Cook on low heat, stirring gently until they are just set but still soft and fluffy. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. Assemble the Sandwich: Take two slices of bread and layer shredded cheese, scrambled eggs, and two strips of bacon on each. Top with another slice of cheese and the remaining bread.
4. Butter the Outside of the Bread: Spread butter on the outer sides of both slices for a golden, crunchy crust.
5. Grill the Sandwich: Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Place the sandwich carefully into the pan and press down with a spatula. Cook for about 3-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and the cheese melts.
6. Repeat: If making multiple sandwiches, repeat the grilling process with additional sandwiches as needed.
7. Serve Hot: Once grilled to perfection, remove from the skillet and let cool for a minute. Cut in half to expose the gooey, cheesy interior.
