While granola bars are the superior portable nibble, breakfast sandwiches are more of an ideal vehicle for morning sustenance, especially if you can't be bothered to eat before heading off to work. This collection is for those who would prefer the latter over the former...us fickle souls who clamor for bacon, gravitate toward eggs, and start feeling our stomachs growl before lunch after a meager bowl of oatmeal. Of course, not all of these breakfast sandwiches travel well. Others require a little extra effort, and thus are more appropriate for a leisurely weekend brunch.
