Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Whole Wheat Biscuit
- 4 slices Turkey bacon
- 1 cup Egg Whites
- 1 cup Low-fat Cheddar Cheese
- 0.25 cup Skim Milk
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 as needed Cooking Spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare the whole wheat biscuits following the package instructions if using store-bought, or bake your homemade version in the preheated oven.
While biscuits are baking, place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and spray with cooking spray.
Add turkey bacon slices to the skillet and cook until crisp, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together egg whites and skim milk, adding salt and black pepper to taste.
Spray the skillet again with cooking spray, then pour in the egg mixture. Cook the eggs over medium heat, stirring gently to scramble, until cooked through but still fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
Once the biscuits are done, split each in half. On the bottom half of each biscuit, layer a slice of turkey bacon, a portion of scrambled egg whites, and top with 1/4 cup of low-fat cheddar cheese.
Place the top half of the biscuits back on and return to the oven for another 3-4 minutes or until cheese is just melted.
Serve warm and enjoy your low-fat bacon, egg, and cheese biscuits!
