How to Make Italian Egg Sandwiches

In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are set but still slightly moist (about 3-5 minutes).
Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce on each slice of bread.
Place the cooked eggs on one slice of bread.
Top with mozzarella cheese and the other slice of bread.
Butter the outside of the sandwich.
Cook the sandwich in the same skillet over medium heat, buttered side down first, until golden brown and the cheese is melted (about 2-3 minutes per side).
Slice the sandwich in half and serve immediately.
