Instructions

Cut loaf of bread into 4 equal pieces, then cut each piece in half to open them up to make your sandwiches.

In a small skillet, melt a pat of butter. Fry each egg with a pinch of salt and pepper until cooked completely. Repeat until all the eggs are cooked.

Assemble the sandwich: spread a bit of butter on the inside of the bread slices. On the bottom half, layer an egg, a slice of cheese, a fourth of the cooked pancetta, then about 1/4 cup of arugula. Top with the top slice of bread and butter the outside of the sandwich. Repeat until all the sandwiches are made.

Heat your panini grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the sandwiches until the cheese is melted and the bread is grilled and slightly crunchy.

Cut the sandwiches in half and serve with a side of fruit.
