Throw your English muffins in the toaster and put your Canadian bacon in a small non-stick skillet on medium to warm. Put your eggs in a small bowl and whisk with a fork. After about 1 minute – remove the bacon from the pan and add your eggs and cheese. Move the eggs from the edges to the center of the pan gently with a rubber spatula to scramble. Season with salt and pepper.
Put the bacon on the bottom of one half of the English muffins, top each with a tomato slice and divide eggs over each. Cover with remaining muffin halves, wrap in wax or parchment paper and they’re ready to take to the bus stop!
