With so many QSR chains offering breakfast sandwiches, Bruegger’s Bagels is attempting to stand out from the crowd with its new Pretz Mex Egg Sandwich. By combining its signature Pretzel Bagel with Mexican-inspired ingredients, the sandwich offers consumers something beyond the standard duo of eggs and bacon.
The Pretz Mex Egg Sandwich is a limited-edition breakfast dish that is made with the chain's salty Pretzel Bagel. The bagel is then topped with a fresh-cracked egg, Swiss cheese, peppered bacon and a serving of spicy guacamole. The new sandwich is meant to serve as a summery morning meal option that can be enjoyed in the store or one the go. To complete the meal, Bruegger’s Bagels is also offering a tropical Coconut Coffee drink that can be enjoyed hot or over ice.
