Bacon Egg and Cheese Rice Paper Spiral

It’s hard to beat the perfect little bacon egg n cheese from the shop on the corner when you’re in New York. It’s definitely my go-to breakfast and I think about them more than I’m going to admit right now. I’ve tried this rice paper hack before but comboing it with a bacon egg and cheese might be the ultimate move. It’s crunchy, gooey, melty and insanely delicious. You gotta try it

Ingredients

3 rice paper sheets
5 eggs (4 for filling, 1 for dipping)
2 strips bacon or turkey bacon, cooked and chopped
½ cup shredded mozzarella
Everything bagel seasoning
Method

Start by scrambling 4 eggs until just set, soft and fluffy, not dry. Set aside.
Whisk the remaining egg on a plate — this will be your “egg dip.” One at a time, dip each rice paper sheet into the beaten egg, coating evenly. Lay them out on a lightly oiled cutting board, slightly overlapping to create one large sheet.
Layer the fillings: scrambled eggs down the center, followed by chopped bacon and shredded mozzarella.
Roll up tightly into a cylinder, sealing the edge as you go, then gently curl it around itself into a compact spiral.
Brush the top with any leftover egg and sprinkle generously with everything bagel seasoning.
Bake at 400°F for 15–20 minutes until golden and crisp.

So, when I’m in New York, one of my absolute favorite things to eat is the perfect bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich. Last time I was there, I ate more than I am willing to admit. And since I’ve been home, I’ve been absolutely craving one. And we just don’t make them the same here. So, I decided to try making one using this rice paper hack that I absolutely love. I took some rice paper sheets, got them dipped in egg wash, then got them filled with my scrambled eggs, chopped bacon, and some mozzarella. And I got this rolled up into a perfect little spiral and topped with some everything bagel. This came out absolutely banging. You want to try this one.

    is a local street food using thick rice paper and grilling it with toppings. Like a Vietnamese pizza if you will. It’s amazing. Have to admit that although this “bagel” is hella weird it probably is tasty.

  2. I dropped a WHOLE dozen eggs yesterday. The pricey kind. I was wrecked. I salvaged what I could by scrambling up the eggs that I could pick the shells from. So then, I had 2 bowls of eggs. I was dreading eating them for the next few days. Then THIS shows up on my feed!THANK YOU! I am gonna be making this in all varieties from now on!
