Ingredients
- 2 slices Low sodium turkey bacon
- 1 piece Whole grain sandwich thin
- 1 large Egg
- 1 slice Low sodium cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon Unsalted butter
- 1 pinch Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Fresh spinach leaves
Directions
Step 1
Begin by heating a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the slices of low sodium turkey bacon and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
Step 2
While the bacon is cooking, toast the whole grain sandwich thin in a toaster until lightly browned. Set aside.
Step 3
In the same skillet used for the bacon, melt the unsalted butter over medium-low heat. Crack the egg into the skillet and cook slowly until the white is set and the yolk is cooked to your desired doneness, roughly 4-5 minutes. Season with a pinch of black pepper.
Step 4
Lower the heat and place the slice of low sodium cheddar cheese on top of the egg. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the cheese melt for about 1-2 minutes.
Step 5
Assemble the sandwich by placing the fresh spinach leaves on the bottom half of the toasted sandwich thin. Layer on the cooked turkey bacon, followed by the egg and melted cheese.
Step 6
Top with the remaining half of the sandwich thin. Serve immediately and enjoy your low sodium bacon egg cheese sandwich.
