Makes 1 serving
Ingredients:
1 low-calorie, whole-wheat English muffin
1 whole egg
1 slice of extra-lean turkey bacon, preferably nitrate-free
1 slice low-fat American cheese
Directions:
Split the English muffin and toast, or grill the faces until brown in a hot pan set over medium heat. Keep the pan hot. Set English muffin aside.
Find a shallow can, such as an 8-ounce sliced-pineapple can that is the same diameter as the English muffin. Cut off both ends of the can and thoroughly clean it (be careful of any sharp edges). Spray a coating of nonstick spray on the inside of the can, and place it into the hot pan so it heats up.
When the can is hot, spray more nonstick spray over the surface of the pan, and crack the egg into the can. Salt the egg.
Place the slice of turkey bacon into the same pan to heat up while the egg cooks.
When the egg seems to be firming up on top, use a knife to scrape around the edge of the can to help release the egg. Carefully pull the can off the egg, then flip the egg over and cook for an additional minute or so.
Build the sandwich by first placing the slice of American cheese on the bottom half of the English muffin. Place the egg on top of the cheese. Stack the turkey bacon on the egg. Top the sandwich off with the top half of the English muffin.
If desired, microwave the sandwich for 10 to 15 seconds, until warm and the cheese has melted, and serve immediately.
