Cooking Steps
• Wash and dry produce.
• Crack each egg into a separate microwave-safe bowl (for 4 servings, work in batches and reuse bowls). Gently pierce yolks with a fork, then stir once (yolks will be broken, but not fully blended); season with salt and pepper. Cover bowls with plastic wrap and microwave for 60 seconds. If needed, continue to microwave in 30-second intervals until eggs are cooked through. TIP: We were able to fit two bowls in the microwave at the same time.
• While eggs cook, in a small bowl, combine sour cream with as much hot sauce as you like. Halve and toast buns.
• Spread a thin layer of spicy crema on cut sides of top and bottom buns; fill with eggs, gouda, a small handful of arugula, and half the crispy onions.
• In a medium bowl, toss remaining arugula with as much dressing as you like.
• Divide sammies and salad between plates; top salad with remaining crispy onions and serve.
Wash hands and surfaces after handling raw eggs. Consuming raw or undercooked eggs may increase your risk of foodborne illness.

- Ease of prep: Quick and easy to make, though some preferred pan-frying eggs instead of microwaving for better texture and safety.
- Suggestions: Consider adding bacon or avocado for extra flavor; try frying the egg instead of microwaving for improved texture.

Reviews from our home cooks
With the addition of butter in the eggs, this is AMAZING. I love that this doesn't require the stove because who has time for that and washing produce in the morning?? The spicy crema was perfect here, as was the honey mustard dressing. Love this recipe!
Honestly not a fan of arugula, and eggs are just so-so. But when built as instructed with a toasted bun and the spicy crema these ingredients come together to make an exceptional sandwich.
I ended up cooking the eggs on the stove rather than in the microwave and left the yolk a little runny and they were so amazing. The dijon dressing with the arugula and crispy onions made this the best breakfast!
I have a new way to cook eggs for sammies! One egg only took 30 seconds in my microwave. Don't wait to fix this: The arugula does NOT keep for 4-5 days. I picked out enough to put on one sandwich. But seriously, this is delicious.
This is the 2nd time I've ordered this. Highly recommend it. These exceeded my expectations! So easy and tasty. Loved the crispy onions and arugula on top of the sammie and as a little side salad.
Was never a fried egg person and still really enjoyed this sandwich. As microwave egg cooking never works for me, I just did it in a pan with some butter, and steam melted the gouda on top the egg.
I like arugula, but wish there was a variety for the salad - mixed with spinach and green leafy lettuce. We LOVE the honey dijon mustard dressing. That always goes over well with us in any of the meals.
I really like having a salad with these sammies. I'm dairy free so I left the cheese off and added a slice of apple instead. Yum!
The honey Dijon and arugula together were mind blowing 🤯 Such a good dish!
This was very bland, even with the hot sauce. The other Gouda egg sandwich with spicy mayo and guac is much more flavorful.
