Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece Whole wheat bagel
- 1 piece Large egg
- 1 slice Low sodium cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 pinch Ground pepper
- 1 handful Fresh spinach leaves
Instructions
Slice the whole wheat bagel in half and toast it lightly until golden brown.
In a small bowl, crack the large egg and beat it with the unsweetened almond milk and a pinch of ground pepper until well combined.
Melt the unsalted butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the egg mixture to the skillet and cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are scrambled and just set, about 2-3 minutes.
Place the slice of low sodium cheddar cheese on one half of the toasted bagel.
Pile the scrambled eggs on top of the cheese to allow the heat to slightly melt the cheese.
Top the eggs with fresh spinach leaves for added crunch and nutrition.
Cover with the other half of the bagel to form a sandwich.
Serve immediately while warm.
