Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 Whole wheat English muffin
- 2 slices Turkey bacon
- 4 tbsp Egg whites
- 1 slice Low-fat cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup Spinach
- 0.125 tsp Salt
- 0.125 tsp Black pepper
- 1 spray Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Start by preheating a non-stick skillet over medium heat and apply a light coating of non-stick cooking spray.
Place the turkey bacon in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until crispy. Remove the bacon and set it aside on a paper towel to drain excess fat.
In the same skillet, pour in the egg whites and season with salt and pepper. Cook while gently stirring until the egg whites are set (about 2-3 minutes). Remove from heat.
While the eggs are cooking, split the whole wheat English muffin and toast both halves until golden brown.
To assemble the sandwich, place a slice of the low-fat cheddar cheese on the bottom half of the English muffin.
Top the cheese with the cooked egg whites, followed by the turkey bacon slices.
Add the fresh spinach leaves on top, then place the other half of the English muffin on top to complete the sandwich.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-fat, protein-packed breakfast sandwich.
