Ingredients
- 2 whole grain bagel thins
- 2 large eggs
- 1 slice low-fat cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooking spray
Instructions
- Prepare your ingredients by gathering all items: whole grain bagel thins, eggs, low-fat cheese slice, salt, pepper, and cooking spray.
- Lightly coat a non-stick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat.
- Crack eggs into a small bowl, whisk gently with a fork, adding a pinch of salt and pepper to enhance flavor.
- Pour whisked eggs into the heated skillet, using a spatula to gently scramble and create soft, fluffy eggs.
- While eggs are cooking, lightly toast the bagel thins in a toaster until they are golden and crisp around the edges.
- When eggs are almost set, tear the low-fat cheese slice in half and place on top of the eggs to melt slightly.
- Remove eggs with melted cheese from skillet and place directly onto one half of the toasted bagel thin.
- Top with the other half of the bagel thin, creating a compact sandwich.
- Cut sandwich diagonally and serve immediately while eggs are warm and cheese is soft.
- Optional: Garnish with fresh herbs like chives or parsley for added flavor and visual appeal.
Tips
- Use Fresh Eggs: Always choose fresh eggs for the best flavor and fluffiest texture.
- Control Your Heat: Medium heat is crucial to prevent eggs from becoming rubbery or overcooked.
- Whisk Thoroughly: Gently whisking eggs creates a more uniform, creamy scramble.
- Non-Stick is Key: A good non-stick skillet ensures easy cooking and minimal cleanup.
- Cheese Melting Trick: Place cheese on eggs while they're still hot to create a perfect, slightly melted layer.
- Toast to Perfection: Watch your bagel thins closely to achieve that ideal golden-brown crispness.
- Season Creatively: Experiment with herbs like chives, parsley, or even a dash of red pepper flakes.
- Meal Prep Friendly: You can prepare these sandwiches in advance and quickly reheat for busy mornings.
- Customize Your Sandwich: Try different low-fat cheese varieties or add spinach for extra nutrition.
- Serve Immediately: Enjoy while warm to experience the best texture and flavor.
