Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large egg whites
- 4 slices turkey bacon
- 2 whole grain English muffins
- 2 slices reduced-fat cheddar cheese
- 1 cup spinach leaves
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat it with cooking spray.
In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg whites until slightly frothy. Add salt and black pepper to the egg whites and mix gently.
Pour the egg whites into the skillet, allowing them to cook without stirring until they begin to set, approximately 3-4 minutes.
Gently fold the cooked egg whites into quarters and keep them warm on a plate.
In the same skillet, add olive oil and sauté the spinach leaves until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove spinach and set aside.
In another skillet, cook the turkey bacon over medium heat until crispy, approximately 4-5 minutes per side. Remove from heat and set aside.
Split and toast the whole grain English muffins until lightly browned.
Assemble the sandwich by placing a slice of cheddar cheese on the bottom half of each English muffin.
Layer with the folded egg whites, sautéed spinach, two slices of turkey bacon, and the top half of the English muffin.
Return the sandwiches to the skillet to melt the cheese slightly, if desired, then serve hot.
