Description

These High Protein Breakfast Sandwiches are made with whole-grain English muffins, eggs, egg whites, breakfast sausage, and cheese. They’re a great make-ahead recipe to keep you full on busy mornings!  


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 whole grain English muffins
  • 4 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup egg whites
  • 4 turkey breakfast sausage patties
  • 4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onion
  • olive oil or olive oil spray

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Brush or spay the cut side of the English muffins with olive oil and toast, cut side up, until lightly golden and then remove from the oven.
  3. Spray or brush the ramekins with olive oil. Crack one egg into each ramekin and then add 3 tablespoons of egg whites to each ramekin. Use a fork to break the yolk and lightly whisk the egg and egg whites together. Top each of the eggs with 1/2 tablespoon of thinly sliced green onion.
  4. Bake the eggs for 10-12 minutes at 350 degrees, until the eggs are just set.
  5. While the eggs are baking cook the turkey sausage patties according to the package instructions.
  6. Assemble the sandwiches: Use an off set spatula to remove the baked eggs from the ramekins and place on the bottom half of the English muffins. Top with a turkey sausage patty, a slice of cheddar cheese, and the English muffin top. Enjoy!
