5 Minute Cooking: Croissant Sandwich

I'm obsessed with making croissant sandwiches! They're great for a quick breakfast in the morning, yummy, and so easy (and fast) to make!
To make 2 croissant sandwiches:
You'll need:
- 2 croissants
- 3 eggs
- 2 slices of cheese
- milk
- butter

Steps:
1. Set a small non-stick frying pan on medium heat. Put some butter on the pan and spread it all around as it melts.
2. Crack, then beat the eggs in a small bowl with a whisk or fork, adding in a splash of milk.
3. Add the mixture to the pan, and turn the heat down a little. After a few seconds, begin stirring until the eggs are fully scrambled and not runny.

4. Collect the scrambled eggs in the center and then divide them in half.

5. Take a knife and cut the croissants in half (or you can do it hot dog style as seen here).
5. Transfer each half of the scrambled eggs into a croissant, then put two halves of a single slice of cheese on top.
6. Feel free to add some turkey, ham, or whatever else to your sandwich.
7. Enjoy!

VO5 Miracle Concentrate



It has been soooo hot in the UK today - 29 degrees!!! Strangely it's also been raining on and off all day making beautiful rainbows :)

I bought the VO5 miracle concentrate about 2 weeks ago and have used it every day since.
I've only used up the tiniest amount even though I use half a pippette worth of product every day!!!
I absolutely love this product, it feels amazing after blow drying, keeps my hair silky throughout the day and I feel it is a great cheaper alternative to Morrocan oil. 
Don't get me wrong, Morrocan oil will probably always be my favourite, however the VO5 is so much cheaper at only £5. I also sometimes find that Morrocan oil can feel a bit thick on my hair.

I couldn't recommend this product enough. Of course everyones hair is different so I can't speak for every hair type however it works wonders on my dry, heat-damaged hair! I also have noticed a reduction in blowdrying time!

I bought my VO5 Miracle Concentrate at boots :)
