How to Make Low Fat Breakfast Sandwich

  1. Lightly butter one side of each English muffin half or spray with cooking spray.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the muffin halves, butter-side down, in the skillet and toast for 1-2 minutes per side, until lightly browned.
  3. Remove muffins from skillet and set aside.
  4. Add the ham to the skillet and heat through for about 30 seconds per side.
  5. Pour the egg substitute into the skillet.
  6. Cook, stirring gently, until the egg is just set but still slightly moist (about 1-2 minutes).
  7. Place the cooked ham on the bottom half of the English muffin.
  8. Spoon the cooked egg substitute over the ham.
  9. Top with a slice of low-fat cheese.
  10. Cover with the top half of the English muffin.
  11. Let the sandwich sit for a minute to allow the cheese to melt slightly. Enjoy!
