Sunrise Sandwich
This high-protein breakfast sunrise sandwich is so delicious you'll want to chow down on it every single morning. You'll get about 6 grams of protein from the eggs, a little over 5 grams from the turkey, about 3 in a slice of American cheese, and 5 grams in this whole wheat English muffins.
Ingredients:
- 1 tsp canola or olive oil
- 1 egg
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 oz smoked turkey breast (Smoked meat products can be high in sodium. Look for turkey with fewer than 500 milligrams of sodium per serving).
- 1 slice American, Cheddar, or pepper Jack cheese
- 1 thick tomato slice
- 1 whole-wheat English muffin, split and toasted
- 1 Tbsp guacamole
Instructions:
- Heat the oil in a small nonstick skillet or sauté pan over medium heat until hot.
- Add the egg and gently fry until the white is set but the yolk is still runny about 5 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper to your liking.
- Place the turkey on a plate, top with the cheese, and microwave for 30 to 45 seconds, until the turkey is hot and the cheese is melted.
- Place the tomato on the bottom half of the English muffin, and season with salt and pepper. Top with the turkey and egg. Slather the guacamole on the top half of the muffin, and crown the sandwich.
