Ingredients
Croissant Base
- Flaky buttery croissants – 2
Protein
- Smoked turkey bacon – 4 slices
- Eggs – 2 large
Dairy and Cheese
- Plant-based cheese slices – 2
Fresh Produce
- Fresh spinach leaves – 1 cup
- Tomato, sliced – 1 medium
Seasonings & Sauces
- Vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural) – 1 teaspoon
- Apple cider vinegar (natural) – 1 teaspoon (for egg mixture)
- Salt – to taste
- Black pepper – to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Smoked Turkey Bacon: Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the smoked turkey bacon until crisp and golden. Remove from the pan and drain on a paper towel for perfectly crunchy texture.
- Cook the Eggs: In a bowl, whisk eggs with a splash of apple cider vinegar (natural), salt, and pepper. Pour into a non-stick pan over medium heat and cook gently while stirring to form soft, fluffy scrambled eggs. Remove once just set.
- Toast the Croissants: Slice the croissants horizontally in half and toast them lightly in a toaster or pan. This adds warmth and a slight crispness, enhancing the flaky texture.
- Assemble the Sandwich: On the bottom half of each croissant, layer fresh spinach leaves, tomato slices, scrambled eggs, crispy smoked turkey bacon, and plant-based cheese. Drizzle a little vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural) over the top for extra zing.
- Final Touch: Place the croissant tops over the fillings, press gently, and serve immediately to enjoy the warm, melty flavors and textures.
Notes
- Use the freshest croissants and ingredients for best flavor.
- Keep scrambled eggs soft and creamy to balance the crunchy bacon.
- Cook smoked turkey bacon until crisp but not burnt for optimal texture.
- Place cheese on hot eggs or bacon to allow it to melt naturally.
- Customize sauces by adding a touch of mustard or extra vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural) to change flavor profile.
