Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices Low-sodium bacon
- 1 Large egg
- 1 slice Low-sodium cheddar cheese
- 1 Everything bagel
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 1 handful Fresh spinach leaves
- 1 pinch Ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Add the low-sodium bacon slices to the skillet and cook, flipping occasionally, until crisp and browned. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess fat.
While the bacon is cooking, split the everything bagel and lightly toast it using a toaster or by heating it in a pan over medium heat until slightly golden.
Crack the egg into a small bowl and beat it lightly.
Melt the unsalted butter in the same skillet over medium heat, and pour in the beaten egg. Allow it to cook for about 2-3 minutes, using a spatula to fold and stir gently to scramble it.
Once the egg is cooked to your desired firmness, remove it from the pan and set aside.
Assemble the sandwich: Place the bottom half of the toasted bagel on a plate, layer with fresh spinach leaves, scrambled eggs, sliced low-sodium cheddar cheese, cooked bacon, and top with a pinch of ground black pepper.
Place the top half of the bagel on the sandwich and press down gently.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious low-sodium breakfast sandwich.
