Egg sandwiches are always here for you.
Look, I'm just as big a fan of cooking projects as the next guy. Spend all day preparing a big pot of soup, roasting a slab of meat, or grilling giant racks of ribs? Sign me up.
But after a long day of work and play, when I get home at 8, 9, or 10 pm, I need dinner—fast. And there's a dinner that's always there for me: the simple fried egg sandwich.Perfectly toasted bread.

But in a pinch, as when the jar is scraped completely dry, good old fashioned olive oil works, too.
The egg sandwich has been many a late night dinner, many a lunchtime snack, and even the occasional weekend treat . But thankfully, I never get tired of it. If I did, what would I eat for those late-night dinners?
