Method
First, place the baked beans in a microwave-safe bowl and heat on high as per the instructions on the tin. Set aside.
Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over high heat and quickly brown the pre-cooked/quick-cook sausage and the bacon for about one minute per side. Make sure all the meat is cooked through.
While the sausage and bacon are cooking, pop the bread into the toaster.
Then, push the sausage and bacon to one side of the pan, turn the heat up and crack an egg into the empty space.
Add the halved tomato (cut side down) next to it and cook for one minute until the egg white is set but the yolk is still runny.
Plate and serve immediately, adding seasoning and ketchup or brown sauce as desired.
