Egg, Ham and Cheese Breakfast Sandwiches
Protein packed and just 320 calories each, these satisfying breakfast sandwiches are ideal for making-ahead, freezing and popping in the microwave whenever the mood strikes.
Ingredients
- 12 English muffins split, whole wheat
- 1 egg dozen
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 12 lices ham (thickly sliced)
- 12 lices sharp cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees and spray a muffin tin with cooking spray.
- Crack one egg into each muffin tin and sprinkle with salt and pepper. For even baking, gently break the yolk using a fork or knife.
- Bake eggs until egg whites are firm, 18-20 minutes.
- While eggs are baking, begin assembling the sandwiches by placing the bottoms of each English muffin on a flat surface. Top each bottom half with one slice of cheese and once slice of ham.
- Place one egg on top of the ham and cheese half then top with the second half of the English muffin.
- For easy microwave reheating, wrap each sandwich individually in parchment paper then place in a resealable plastic bag to freeze. To reheat, simply place in the microwave for 60 seconds on full power or 1 1/2 minutes on 50% power.
Notes
- This recipe is great for using up left over ham and is also great for prepping ahead and freezing.
