Italian Power Breakfast Sandwich


This yummy breakfast can be made in about the time it takes to toast an English muffin!

serves 1 ( 4 points +)

  • 1 low fat English muffin, toasted
  • 1 T. low-fat ricotta cheese
  • 1/4 c. egg beaters
  • 1/2 small plum tomato, sliced thinly
  • 1/4 c. fresh, baby spinach leaves
  • salt and pepper to taste


Season ricotta with salt and pepper. Spread over one half of the English muffin.
Top with spinach and sliced tomatoes.
Coat a nonstick skillet with spray. Cook egg beaters. Place on top of tomato. Top with remaining English muffin half.

    1. Melissa,
      Sorry to hear that you do not like eggs or oatmeal. You could try a little chicken breast in place of eggs.
      Also, Dannon Light and Fit has a new Greek yogurt that is awesome. I love the vanilla and also several varieties with the fruit in the bottom. They are only 2 points each. Quinoa, which is a high protein grain, is also full of protein. There are several recipes on the web using quinoa including everything from a breakfast cereal, to cookies to a dinner dish.
