Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece Whole-grain bagel
- 1 piece Large egg
- 2 tablespoons Low-fat shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon Non-stick cooking spray
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Fresh spinach leaves
- 2 slices Tomato, sliced
Instructions
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and spray it with non-stick cooking spray.
While the skillet is heating, slice the whole-grain bagel into two halves and set aside.
Crack the egg into a small bowl and whisk it lightly until yolk and white are combined. Season with salt and pepper.
Pour the egg mixture into the preheated skillet and let it cook without stirring until the edges start to set, approximately 1-2 minutes.
Gently stir the egg using a spatula, folding it over itself. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until fully set.
Remove the cooked egg from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
Place both halves of the bagel, cut side down, into the same skillet and lightly toast them for 1-2 minutes until they are just golden.
Remove the bagel halves from the skillet. On the bottom half, layer the cooked egg, followed by the fresh spinach leaves and tomato slices.
Sprinkle the low-fat shredded cheddar cheese over the tomatoes.
Top with the other half of the bagel and press gently.
Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your low-fat bagel with egg and cheese.
