Ingredients

2 butter croissants
4 large eggs
6 slices tomato
6 slices bacon
4 slices cheddar
¼ onion chopped or sliced
2-3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon garlic, minced more or less to taste
butter if needed
cooking spray if needed

Instructions

Cook bacon in a skillet, oven or microwave. Set aside. We usually fry the bacon in a skillet and then throw onions in the left over bacon fat to caramelize them. I know that it is terrible but the onions taste so good!
After your bacon is cooked either fry onions in bacon fat or use butter. Stir onions frequently, over medium high heat, until tender and brown. Drain on paper towel if necessary. Set aside.
Slice your tomato and set slices aside. Combine mayonnaise and garlic. Set aside covered in fridge until needed.
Slice croissants in half, butter for best flavor, and toast for a few minutes under broiler, on a rimmed baking sheet, if desired, while cooking your eggs.
In your skillet, over medium heat, melt butter or use cooking spray. Crack eggs and cook until they are done the way you like them.
Place cheese slices on the bottom half. Place eggs on top of the cheese, right from the fry pan. The hot eggs will melt the cheese.
Next place fried onions, tomato slices and then bacon on top of the eggs.
Spread mayonnaise on top half of croissant and place on top of sandwich. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

Use freshly baked croissants from a local bakery or supermarket for the best flavor.

If your croissants are not fresh, briefly warm them in the oven or toaster before assembling your sandwich.

Lightly butter the inside of the croissant before toasting for more flavor.

Build your sandwiches and serve while everything is still warm and crisp.

Serve and enjoy immediately for the best results.

Don't overcook your eggs as they will continue to cook slightly after being taken off the heat.
