Almost the same as my top 2, just change the egg mcmuffin to snausage mcmuffin.
When you make your breakfast sandwhiches to freeze, what meat did you use? How did you prep the sandwhiches to freeze. I’m interested in doing this for my wife so she can eat a breakfast on the go when dropping the kids off for daycare/school.
You didn't ask me, but we make breakfast sandwiches on the regular for our meal prep. I don't usually freeze them, but it probably wouldn't be hard to do that.
I recently used the johnsonville sausage patties (sandwich size -- it even says that on the bag!), and I don't cook them while assembling because they just need to be warmed up for about 60 seconds. They worked really well, honestly! We change up the sandwich vehicle -- this week, it's bagel thins, but usually, it's English muffins (I lightly toast both). I make the egg portion with a muffin top pan -- bake at 350 for about 15 minutes. We wrap them in wax paper and refrigerate for the week.
I can't even sit at the table with people that put fruit on their pancakes It's like you are trying to be healthy when you are eating pancakes. Have a seperate plate for the fruit
I am a Sausage, Egg Mcmuffin guy. For some reason those things are just next level tasting and they clearly should not taste that good.

The best classic (bacon/sausage, egg, cheese) breakfast sandwich I've had is White Castle Sliders. Wayyy better than their normal sandwiches and food.
My personal favorite is the Maple Bacon Chicken Croissant from Wendy's but it's also not what I'd call a classic breakfast option.

Biscuits and gravy FTW, and you get their hash rounds to dip in the leftover gravy.
1. Casey's breakfast pizza (sausage)
1a. McDonald's sausage, egg and cheese McMuffin, sub folded egg

McDonald's Sausage, egg and Cheese Bagel...BUT, substitute the flat egg that they normally put in it with the fresh scramble eggs from their big breakfast meal. Eggs are fresh that way and not the flat eggs that are frozen and reheated. Delicious!

Agreed on McDonald's eggs. The round egg is the best, because it's fresh cracked. Second would be their scrambled egg. It's not fresh cracked, but is made from liquid egg, and cooked in store. The folded egg is a distant third, and absolutely nasty.
Agree with this although your at the mercy of how well their hash browns come out. It's like their fries they either come out amazing or tasting like ***.
Bacon breakfast pizza from Casey's is also a good option/
You didn't ask me, but I've done a lot of research to get this just right so figured I'd share.
I make a variety of breakfast sandwiches that include sausage/egg/cheese; bacon/egg/cheese; and sausage/bacon/egg/cheese. My preference is the sausage/egg/cheese and I just use the Jimmy Dean regular sausage...
I just slice off a section and then flatten it out a good bit so that it's maybe 1/4 inch thick.
Throughout my testing the only bread that worked well being frozen and then microwaved were English muffins.
So I'll get my sausage prepped and then into the frying pan. In a separate pan I'll fry the egg. I'll slice the English muffin and put it in the toaster. I'll let it sit after it's toasted, and when the sausage and egg are cooked I'll get ready to build the sandwich. I'll lightly butter the muffin, put the sausage patty down, put half a slice of cheese on that, put the egg down, put the other half slice of cheese on that, and then the top of the muffin. Once it's all together I'll wrap in tin foil (Reynolds Wrap Heavy Duty), and put into the freezer.
To heat, I'll unwrap from the foil, double wrap the sandwich in a paper towel, heat at 30% power for 90 seconds to defrost, flip over, and then heat for 70 seconds at full power. Let it sit a minute and enjoy.
For bacon, I just cook the bacon and then when building the sandwich I put the egg down first, half slice of cheese, break up the bacon into smaller sections and stack, then the other half slice of cheese, and top of the muffin, wrap in foil, and freeze. Heating process for the bacon/egg/cheese sandwiches is same as sausage.
I do this every week, so we have batches in the freezer and it works great as a quick and easy breakfast on the go. Better quality and more cost effective than buying the processed ones.

I’ll second the Jimmy Dean if you want prepackaged. We go through A TON of breakfast sausage and it’s the only prepackaged one we’ll use. We’ve been working off of 30 lbs of homemade sausage lately with fareway seasoning but usually do the Fareway case. Jimmy Dean is the go to if Fareway isn’t open. I cook breakfast for the family basically 7 days a week, every week.
