If add egg(s): In general, add 1 egg per sandwich packet. Season the egg with nutritional yeast. Whisk well and pour the mixture into a well-greased skillet. Give it a gentle swirl. When the edge is firm up (about less than a minute), carefully fold the egg into triangle (crepe) shape.

Store: Once the patties and eggs are in room temperature. Sandwich the egg in-between two meat patties. Wrap and secure the sandwich with parchment paper and store in quart size ziplock bags.* Store the sandwich in freezer if you will not finish them within 2 days.
