Split the whole grain bagel in half and toast it to your liking.
In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil over medium heat.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and saute until wilted, about 2 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg whites with salt and black pepper.
Pour the egg whites into the skillet with the spinach and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until they are set and no longer runny, roughly 3-4 minutes.
Place the slice of reduced-fat cheddar cheese on top of the egg white and spinach mixture to allow it to melt slightly.
Assemble the sandwich by placing the egg, spinach, and cheese mixture between the toasted bagel halves.
Serve immediately and enjoy your heart-healthy breakfast!
