The trend "with an egg on top" has been around for a couple of years now. I've seen a creamy sunny side up egg cracked on top of pizzas, hamburgers, rice and even in soups and stews! I decided to make a variation of a BLT sandwich with an egg not exactly cracked on top but rather nestled into the bread "in a hole" style. The flavor combination is outstanding and a perfect meal for brunch or lunch.
