Ingredients
- Dan-O’s SPG Tri-O (Salt, Pepper, Garlic) Seasoning
- 1 tbsp Dan-O’s Dips Ranch
- 1/2 lb ground sausage
- 4 everything bagels - sliced in half
- 4 eggs
- 2 big tomatoes - sliced thick
- 4 oz Cream cheese
- ½ an avocado
- 1/2 cup mayo
- 1 1/4 cups buttermilk
- 2- 4 tbsp butter, halved into thinner slices
Preparation Instructions
- Start by making the creamy ranch drizzle. In a blender (or a bowl if you're mixing by hand), combine the avocado, mayonnaise, buttermilk, and 1 tablespoon of Dan-O's Dips Ranch. Blend until smooth and pourable. If it's too thick, add a splash more buttermilk until it's perfect for drizzling. Set it aside.
- Slice your bagels in half. You can use both halves or just the seasoned top halves if you're feeling extra.
- Divide the ground sausage into golf ball-sized portions.
- Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium-high heat and melt about ½ tablespoon of butter. Place the bagel half, seasoning-side down, into the butter to toast.
- Set a sausage ball into the center hole of the bagel, then smash it flat so it spreads evenly across the bagel. Sprinkle generously with Dan-O's SPG Tri-O and cook for about 2 minutes.
- Carefully flip the bagel and sausage together, then cook for another 3 minutes, or until the sausage is cooked through and beautifully browned.
- While the sausage cooks, fry an egg to your liking. Sprinkle it with Dan-O's SPG Tri-O and keep that yolk nice and runny for maximum breakfast magic.
- Spread a generous layer of cream cheese over the toasted bagel. Add one or two slices of tomato and give them another light sprinkle of Dan-O's SPG Tri-O if you'd like.
- Top with the fried egg and finish with a generous drizzle of the creamy avocado ranch. Grab a napkin—this one's juicy, messy, and absolutely Dan-Good. Yum Yum Get Ya Sum!®
