Even though it's lunch time.  There were recent discussions about
waffles (no, this is not a waffle) which led to mentions of Waffle
House.  I recreated a breakfast sandwich I had the last time I ate at
Waffle House:

It's thick cut Texas Toast, topped with a scrambled egg, cooked bacon
slices and a slice of medium cheddar cheese.  The bread is slathered in
butter and the sandwich is cooked in a skillet like a grilled cheese
sandwich.  Delicious!

 Texas toast is basically double thick sliced bread.  I don't understand the attraction to it other than getting about twice as much bread/toast. I prefer toast to be normal thickness so it is cooked through and you can enjoy the butter and jam and not just have a mouthful of mediocre bread.
Yeah, but I wasn't having toasted bread with butter and jam.  I was

recreating something I'd ordered at Waffle House.  They used "Texas Toast" thick cut bread.  It got pressed down a bit with the spatula when I was cooking it in the skillet but it was thicker sliced than regular sandwich bread.  Held up to holding the egg & bacon & cheese nicely. It's not something I'd buy very often.  I'll be putting the rest of the loaf in the freezer for when I feel like making this sort of breakfast sandwich again.
