Ingredients

  • 1 whole wheat English muffin
  • 1 egg
  • 1 slice low-fat cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon low-fat milk
  • 1 spray cooking spray
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Split the whole wheat English muffin into halves and toast them until golden brown.

Step 2

In a small bowl, crack the egg and add the low-fat milk. Whisk them together until well blended and season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.

Step 3

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat it with cooking spray.

Step 4

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and allow it to cook gently until the edges begin to set. Using a spatula, gently scramble or fold the egg to ensure it cooks evenly throughout without overcooking.

Step 5

Once the egg is cooked through, remove it from the skillet and place it on one half of the toasted muffin.

Step 6

Top the egg with a slice of low-fat cheddar cheese.

Step 7

Place the other toasted muffin half on top to form a sandwich.

Step 8

Serve immediately for a delicious, low-fat breakfast option.
