Sandwich Ingredients

- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
- 1/4 avocado, sliced
- 1/4 cup spinach leaves (or arugula)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat the Oil and Cook Eggs: Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Crack eggs into the skillet and cook until the whites are fully set, about 2–3 minutes. Flip the eggs and cook an additional 1 minute or until yolks reach your preferred doneness. Season with salt and pepper.
- Toast the Muffins: While the eggs are cooking, toast the English muffins until they are golden brown and slightly crisp.
- Assemble the Sandwich: Place one cooked egg on the bottom half of each toasted English muffin. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top of the egg, then add a few slices of avocado and fresh spinach leaves.
- Complete the Sandwich: Cover with the other half of the English muffin to form a complete sandwich.
- Serve Immediately: Enjoy your protein-packed, delicious breakfast sandwich fresh and warm for the best flavors.
