Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Low sodium turkey bacon
- 2 Large eggs
- 2 slices Low sodium cheddar cheese
- 2 Whole wheat English muffins
- 1 Tomato
- 1 cup Fresh spinach leaves
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Begin by slicing the tomato into 1/4-inch thick rounds and setting them aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey bacon slices and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until crispy. Remove and set on a paper towel to drain any excess fat.
In the same skillet, add half the unsalted butter. Once melted, crack the eggs into the skillet and season with black pepper. Cook the eggs until the whites are set but the yolks remain slightly runny, or to your desired doneness. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Slice the whole wheat English muffins in half and toast them lightly in a toaster or on a griddle.
Spread the remaining butter on the toasted muffin halves.
Assemble each sandwich by placing a slice of low sodium cheddar cheese on the bottom half of each muffin.
Add the cooked egg on top of the cheese, followed by two slices of cooked turkey bacon.
Layer on a few rounds of tomato slices and a handful of fresh spinach leaves.
Top with the other half of the English muffin and gently press down to secure all ingredients.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low sodium breakfast delight!
