Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 Whole wheat English muffins
- 4 Large eggs
- 4 tablespoons Milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 4 Cheddar cheese slices
- 1 cup Fresh spinach leaves
- 8 Tomato slices
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Split the English muffins in half and place them on a baking sheet for toasting.
Crack the eggs into a bowl, add milk, salt, and black pepper, and whisk together until well combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add butter. Once melted, pour the egg mixture into the skillet.
Cook the eggs gently, occasionally stirring, until softly scrambled. Divide into four portions.
Place the English muffins in the oven to toast for about 5 minutes or until golden brown.
Assemble each McMuffin by layering a portion of scrambled eggs onto the bottom half of each English muffin.
Top the eggs with a slice of cheddar cheese, a few spinach leaves, and two slices of tomato.
Complete each McMuffin by covering with the other half of the English muffin.
Serve immediately while the McMuffin is warm and the cheese is slightly melted.
