My father in law does not cook. I think he is like a lot of men, he mans the grill and that is it. Although, growing up they did have one special breakfast that my father in law was in charge of. It was a Bacon Egg Sandwich. He still makes them sometimes on the weekend when we visit. My 7 year old has become a huge fan of this sandwich as well.
As much as I love bacon, it just isn’t something I have in the house all the time. If I did, I would probably be 50 pounds heavier. Plus, the stuff isn’t cheap. Good bacon is pricey, and considering I could eat half the package in one sitting, it just isn’t economical to purchase often. Despite my 7 year olds pleas, I stand strong!
When Kernel’s Popcorn Seasoning offered to send me a few of their new flavors, I was excited to give them a try. We are HUGE popcorn lovers in this family. Well, guess what one of their new flavors is? Bacon Cheddar!! So not only can you have Bacon Cheddar flavored popcorn, but the seasoning works great to cook with too. You can spice up eggs, pasta, veggies, potatoes….possibilities are endless.
One of the mornings my son asked for a bacon egg sandwich, I decided to give this seasoning a try. He LOVED it! I did throw in a few bacon bits for crunch, but that was it. He gets the bacon flavor, but I don’t have to deal with frying the bacon, and all the fat and calories that come with it. I think I have made him 4 or 5 of these sandwiches for him already. He usually eats his on regular toast, but a Kaiser roll is just fancier 
- 2 eggs
- 1 Tbls skim milk
- 1 tsp Kernel’s Bacon and Cheddar Seasoning
- 1 Tbls bacon bits (optional)
- 1 Kaiser Roll (or 2 pieces of toast)
- Preheat a skillet over medium heat. In a bowl beat together eggs, milk, and the seasoning. Spray skillet with nonstick spray. Pour in the egg mixture. Sprinkle bacon bits over the top if using. Cook until eggs are done and not runny, about 5 minutes. Serve on a roll or toast.
**I was sent samples of seasoning from Kernel’s. The opinions are 100% my own.

You’re a genius! I’d have never come up with the idea of using a popcorn seasoning for this but it’s perfect. I love bacon, egg and cheese sandwiches for breakfast. Ok, ok, I love anything for breakfast, but this is a great combo.
This looks delicious, Erin! These are the kind of sandwiches my husband always craves, and I crave after a night of too many glasses of wine! Thanks for sharing.
Oh my gosh!! I could score major points with the hubby if I made this over the weekend! YUM!!
Great way to satisfy everyone involved … Happy Weekend
Yummy! I’m so hungry right niw and I would love one of your Father in Laws Sandwiches.
This is my husband’s favorite kind of breakfast. Looks delicious!! Have a great weekend!
This is a sandwich my hubby makes, too. I love your lightened version without the loss of bacon flavor
A bacon and egg cheese sandwich sounds like a sandwich that my 6-year old would also love. He’s crazy about guanciale (Somehow like bacon, Italian version. Very good but can’t be eaten all the time.) and I resist. I don’t think I will ever get that seasoning but thanks for the idea of a sandwich!
My dad’s favourite breakfast ever – but so much cheesier and delicious than McDonalds
Cheers

I love how you think. That sandwich sounds great and I love that you got the flavor without the frying!
How interesting! Never saw that seasoning, but I love all their other popcorn seasonings!
i had no idea bacon is expensive. i keep seeing bacon recipes everywhere and i thought is as cheap as white potatoes. guess i was wrong
My oldest would just love this…all things are better with bacon is his motto
My hubs would love this. He’s a big egg guy. Very creative use for the seasoning. Love that idea.
Bacon powder?!? Fabulous. I would love to have one of these served up for breakfast.
Bacon cheddar flavor for popcorn? I’ve never seen this kind of seasonings before for popcorn. Boy, I’m so outdated! This sounds like an easy sandwich for a quick meal. At least we don’t have the oil splatter from frying pan cooking bacons! You are very creative as always, Erin!
So smart! This is one of my favorite weekend breakfasts and I love how you fancied it up
