Ingredients

• 2 Whole grain English muffins
• 2 Large eggs
• 2 Turkey sausage patties
• 2 Low-fat cheddar cheese slices
• 1 cup Fresh spinach
• 2 teaspoons Olive oil
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Begin by splitting the whole grain English muffins in half and toasting them until golden brown.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil.

Step 3

Place the turkey sausage patties into the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are browned and cooked through. Set aside and keep warm.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining teaspoon of olive oil. Crack the eggs into the skillet, sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and fry to your preference (sunny-side-up or over-easy).

Step 5

In a microwave-safe dish, place the fresh spinach and microwave on high for 30 seconds until wilted. Alternatively, you can sauté the spinach in the skillet for about 1 minute.

Step 6

Assemble the Mighty McMuffins by placing a turkey sausage patty on the bottom half of each toasted muffin.

Step 7

Layer a slice of cheddar cheese on top of the sausage patty, followed by the fried egg and a portion of wilted spinach.

Step 8

Complete by placing the top half of the muffin over the assembled ingredients.

Step 9

Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy your delicious High Protein Mighty McMuffin!
