Egg MockMuffins

Recently I've been experimenting with microwaving Egg Beaters in order to make easy breakfast sandwiches. Here are a few of my favorites:

Basic Egg MockMuffin (about 150 calories)

-1 whole grain English muffin, or non-fat
-1/4 cup Egg Beaters, microwaved in a coffee mug (you can use liquid egg whites or any other Egg substitute you prefer)
-1 slice fat free or reduced fat cheddar cheese
-salt and pepper, ketchup (optional)

1.) Microwave the Egg Beaters for about 60-90 seconds, until no liquid is left. Tip the mug over a plate and lightly shake the Egg Beaters out; it should be in a fluffy patty-like shape (and smell delicious!). Toast the muffin in a toaster on the light setting or until just crisp. Put the Egg patty in the muffin and lay the cheese slice on top; if you eat it warm the cheese should melt a little while you eat it. Add a dash of salt and pepper and a squirt of ketchup if you like.

Other variations:

THE WORKS: about 250 calories
-1 English muffin
-1/4 cup Egg Beaters
-1 Morningstar Farms sausage patty
-1 slice Morningstar Farms bacon, grilled
-1 slice fat free or reduced fat cheddar

OMELET SANDWICH:
-1 English muffin
-1/4 cup Egg Beaters
-1 slice fat free or reduced fat cheddar
*Mix the following into the Egg Beaters before microwaving.
-1/8 cup mixed veggies; chopped mushrooms, onion, bell pepper, etc.
-2 tbs salsa

Pictures to come soon!
