Ingredients:

• 4 large croissants, split

Directions:

1. In a small bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard and maple syrup to create the maple mustard sauce. Set aside.

5. On the bottom halves, layer cooked bacon, cooked eggs, and a slice of cheddar cheese. Add fresh spinach or arugula if desired.
   
   

6. Top with the other half of the croissant to form the sandwich.
   
   

7. Serve immediately while warm and enjoy!
