Ingredients

Scale

Sandwich Components

2 whole grain English muffins, split and toasted
2 large eggs
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
1/4 avocado, sliced
1/4 cup spinach leaves (or arugula)

For Cooking

1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Heat the Oil and Cook Eggs: Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Crack eggs into the skillet and cook until the whites are fully set, about 2–3 minutes. Flip the eggs gently and cook an additional 1 minute or until yolks reach your preferred doneness. Season with salt and pepper.
Toast the Muffins: While the eggs are cooking, toast the English muffins until they are golden brown and slightly crisp for added texture and flavor.
Assemble the Sandwich: Place one cooked egg on the bottom half of each toasted English muffin. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top of the egg, then add a few slices of creamy avocado and fresh spinach leaves for freshness and nutrients.
Complete the Sandwich: Cover with the other half of the English muffin to form a complete sandwich, ensuring all ingredients are well layered.
Serve Immediately: Enjoy your protein-packed, delicious breakfast sandwich fresh and warm to experience the best flavor and texture.

Notes

Use any cheese of your choice to suit your taste preferences or dietary needs.
For a vegan version, substitute the eggs with tofu slices and use vegan cheese alternatives.
Add hot sauce or your favorite spread for an extra kick of flavor.
You can replace spinach with arugula or kale depending on availability.
For a lower calorie option, use egg whites instead of whole eggs.
