Ingredients
- 4 slices low sodium turkey bacon
- 2 large eggs
- 4 slices whole grain bread
- 2 tablespoons low sodium butter
- 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
- 2 slices low sodium cheese
Directions
Step 1
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the low sodium turkey bacon slices and cook for 4-5 minutes, turning occasionally, until crispy. Remove the bacon and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess fat.
Step 2
In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of low sodium butter. Once melted, crack two large eggs into the skillet. Cook the eggs over medium heat until the whites are fully set, but the yolks are still runny, or longer if you prefer fully cooked yolks. Sprinkle freshly ground black pepper over the eggs while cooking.
Step 3
While the eggs are cooking, toast the whole grain bread slices in a toaster until golden brown and crisp.
Step 4
Once toasted, spread the remaining 1 tablespoon of low sodium butter evenly across the slices of bread.
Step 5
Place a slice of low sodium cheese on two of the toasted bread slices. Top with the cooked turkey bacon slices and divide the fresh spinach leaves evenly over the cheese and bacon.
Step 6
Place the cooked eggs on top of the spinach leaves.
Step 7
Complete the sandwiches by placing the remaining toasted bread slices on top. Cut each sandwich in half if desired, and serve immediately for a delightful, low sodium breakfast treat.
