2 Tips for Drop-in Lunch Guests and Toasted Parmesan Fried Egg One-Sided Sandwich
How are you with drop-in lunch guests? Today I’m sharing 2 simple tips, plus a Toasted Parmesan Fried Egg One-Sided Sandwich recipe.
I sometimes get frazzled when people drop in, if my house isn’t in order, but I’ve learned to just go with the flow. I’ve decided that it doesn’t really matter, that if I make the offer for them to stay, to realize they didn’t come to inspect my home. Why stress about it?
Don’t stress about!
Move forward.
Come up with a very simple lunch.
2 Tips for Drop-in Guests:
1. Always have ONE bathroom clean and ready for guests
2. Always have EGGS on hand, for a quick and easy meal.
I recently had a choice of making a delicious kale salad, or an easy egg on toast lunch. With the kale salad, you need at least 30 minutes after you make it to allow the dressing to soak into the leaves.
I wanted something quick.
I went to my standard Toasted Parmesan Egg One-Sided Sandwich.
Make your Parmesan butter (secret to a good sandwich!), spreading on each side of the bread and then toasting in a frying pan.
Cook your egg while toasting.
Gather the other delicious ingredients and pile them on – high!
My friend and I sat on the back porch (you can see it was a warm, sunny day – and Filly, our 15-year-0ld kitty, was enjoying the warmth in our outside guest bathroom!) and indulged in this simple sandwich I’m sharing today.
Simple is so good!

That cat is precious! The sandwich looks great too. A frittata is an easy thing to throw together at the last minute too.
Eggs are the perfect go-to lunch. You made a very pretty sandwich with the greens, yum!
I love the micro greens on this. I can’t enough of them lately.
Just sayin’ I love the idea of spreading the bread with Parmesan Butter and pan-toasting it. I’ve never done that before. This will be a great quick Sunday brunch in our house. Thanks!
Love this sammy :) We have that “guest” bathroom that can’t be touched, especially the towels, just for those drop-in guests :)
I can’t figure out if this sandwich would be best for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Maybe all three! :)
