Sandwich Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1 whole grain English muffin, split and toasted
- 1 slice low-fat cheddar cheese
- 1 small avocado, sliced
- 1 handful fresh spinach
- 2 slices tomato
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Cooking spray or 1 teaspoon olive oil
Instructions
- Prepare the skillet: Lightly coat a nonstick skillet with cooking spray or olive oil and heat it over medium heat, ensuring the pan is evenly heated for cooking the eggs.
- Cook the eggs: Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook until the whites are fully set. Flip the eggs if desired to cook over-easy or over-hard according to your preference.
- Toast the English muffin: While the eggs are cooking, toast the English muffin halves until they are golden brown and crisp on the outside.
- Assemble the sandwich: Place the fresh spinach on the bottom half of the toasted muffin, followed by tomato slices, the cooked eggs, a slice of low-fat cheddar cheese, and sliced avocado.
- Season and serve: Sprinkle salt and pepper to taste over the assembled ingredients. Top with the other muffin half and serve the sandwich immediately for the best taste and texture.
