Ingredients
- 1 Whole wheat English muffin
- 3 ounces Ground turkey (93% lean)
- 1 Egg
- 1 Reduced-fat cheddar cheese slice
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 0.125 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.125 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.125 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0 Cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly coat with cooking spray.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine the ground turkey, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until all the seasoning is evenly incorporated.
Step 3
Form turkey mixture into a sausage patty that fits the English muffin.
Step 4
Cook the turkey patty in the preheated skillet for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and it is no longer pink inside. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Step 5
Lightly toast the whole wheat English muffin halves by placing them in the same skillet or under a broiler for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
Step 6
Spray the skillet with cooking spray again if necessary and reduce the heat to low. Crack the egg into the skillet and cook until the white is fully set, about 2-3 minutes. Optionally, flip the egg to cook the yolk further if desired.
Step 7
Place the cheese slice on top of the egg in the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt slightly.
Step 8
Assemble the sandwich by placing the turkey sausage patty on the bottom half of the English muffin. Top with the egg and cheese, then cover with the top half of the muffin.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-fat sausage McMuffin with egg!
