  1. 1

    Crack the egg into the mug/bowl, add the milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk with a fork until well combined.

  3. 3

    Microwave on high for 45-60 seconds, or until the egg is mostly set. Stir gently with a fork to break up any large curds.

    Place the slice of cheese on top of the egg. Microwave for another 15-30 seconds, or until the cheese is melted and the egg is fully cooked.

  5. 5

    While the egg is cooking, toast the English muffin. Once toasted, place the cooked egg and cheese onto one half of the English muffin, then top with the other half. Serve immediately.
