One of my favorite lunches

[prosodic]

Odd, because I don't generally crave Egg McMuffins. But I make this for lunch once or twice a week (I just had one). Gives me a ton of protein and keeps me full for awhile. Yeah, it's not exactly lowfat either, which is why I don't eat them everyday.

I wouldn't call this a recipe, per se. Because anyone that craves this sort of thing can easily make one. But I kind of like being able to cook scrambled eggs in the microwave instead of doing it on the stove.

- toast one English muffin (I like sourdough)

- While English muffin is toasting, scramble one egg in a small bowl or ramekin sprayed with a little cooking spray. Add salt and pepper to taste. Microwave on high for 45 seconds, or until egg is cooked through. The egg might pop a little.

- After egg is finished, put in 3 slices of Oscar Mayer fully cooked bacon (between paper towels). Nuke for 30 seconds. (I'm sure Canadian bacon is great too.)

- Once English muffin is toasted, place a Kraft Single on one half of it. Put egg on top of that. Break bacon strips in half and put on top of egg. Put other half of English muffin on top.

Quick. Easy. Faster than McDonald's. Tasty.

Now...time to take the dog for a walk!

Probably tastier than McDonald's too! xD

It's about comparable, I think. :) And perhaps a bit lower in fat.

We make this all of the time. :) I love it for lunch.

Can you make a vegan substitute, since you just switched over?

I haven't looked too much into vegan substitutes for this sandwich. I'm cheating a bit and eating it for lunch still anyway. Lol. It's just so good! And you're right, it's very filling so it helps me get rid of mid afternoon snacking. It's kind of cool to see that someone else enjoys this sandwich for lunch. :)
