Sandwich Ingredients
- 2 whole wheat English muffins, sliced in half
- 4 slices smoked turkey bacon
- 2 slices plant-based cheese
- 4 fresh tomato slices
- Handful of baby spinach leaves
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- Black pepper, to taste
- Sea salt, to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Natural gelling agent (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the smoked turkey bacon: Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the smoked turkey bacon slices until crispy and golden, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside on paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Toast the English muffins: Slice the English muffins in half and brush the cut sides lightly with olive oil. Toast them in the same skillet or a toaster until golden brown and slightly crunchy.
- Cook the eggs: Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook to your preference: scrambled, fried with runny yolk, or over-easy. Season with vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), salt, and black pepper. For scrambled eggs, fold in baby spinach leaves near the end until wilted but vibrant.
- Assemble your sandwich: Place a slice of plant-based cheese on the bottom half of each toasted English muffin. Top with warm eggs, crispy smoked turkey bacon, fresh tomato slices, and additional spinach leaves if desired. Finish with the top half of the muffin and gently press down.
- Serve immediately: Enjoy your sandwich hot for the best texture and flavor. Pair with your favorite morning beverage and savor each bite.
Notes
- Use day-old English muffins for better toasting and to prevent sogginess.
- Cook eggs on medium-low heat for tender and flavorful results.
- Preheat skillet properly to cook smoked turkey bacon evenly and crisp it well.
- Layer cheese on bottom muffin halves while still warm to melt perfectly over eggs.
- Rinse and dry spinach and tomato slices thoroughly to avoid a watery sandwich.
