Notes

Use Fresh Bagels – Fresh, bakery-style bagels hold up best to all the fillings.
Cook Eggs Gently – Low and slow for soft, fluffy scrambled eggs.
Customize Your Heat – Add extra chipotle sauce or sliced jalapeños if you love spice.
Don’t Overload – Keep toppings balanced so the sandwich is easy to eat.
