Instructions
- Slice cheese into 8 slices. Lay 2 cheese slices each on 4 slices of bread. Spread ketchup on other 4 slices of bread.

Wine Pairings
Egg & bacon sandwich – pair it with: A friendly sparkler. The combo of bacon, cheese and tomato is a great match to the Spanish cava’s crisp, palate-refreshing sparkle. When eggs are on the menu, it’s always good to remember that bubbles make all the difference. Our pick: Segura Viudas Brut Reserva Cava, Spain, $16.
