Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Whole wheat English muffins
- 2 slices Turkey bacon
- 4 large Egg whites
- 1 cup Fresh spinach
- 0.5 cup, shredded Low-fat cheddar cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 spray Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat it with cooking spray.
Add the turkey bacon slices to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until crisp. Remove and drain on paper towels.
In the same skillet, add fresh spinach and cook for about 2 minutes until wilted. Remove and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg whites with salt and black pepper.
Reapply cooking spray to the skillet if needed, then pour in the egg whites. Cook on medium-low heat, gently stirring until just set. Remove from heat.
Split the whole wheat English muffins and lightly toast them either in a toaster or on a skillet.
To assemble, start with the bottom half of each muffin, layer on cooked spinach, turkey bacon, scrambled egg whites, and sprinkle a portion of low-fat cheddar cheese.
Top with the other half of the muffin, press gently, and serve hot.
