"3pm breakfast sandwich 😁 Focaccia bread, sun dried tomato pesto (store bought), turkey bacon, spinach (or use chard or kale it’s good too!), a fried egg and sautéed mushrooms (marinated ones would be amazing as well), black pepper & flake salt + ☕️. . Sometimes you just need a good sandwich! Plus, we need to put all the bread we are baking to good use!"
