Edit Note

Outstanding

This sandwich packs protein from egg and soy ham, calcium from cheese, and fiber and B vitamins from the whole-grain muffin. If you can't find soy ham, use Canadian bacon or ham.

Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 sandwich)

Ingredients

  • Cooking spray
  • 8  (1/2-ounce) slices soy ham (such as Lightlife) or Canadian bacon
  • 4  large eggs
  • 4  whole-grain English muffins, split and toasted
  • 8  teaspoons  mango chutney
  • 3/4  cup  (3 ounces) shredded reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese

Preparation

Preheat broiler.

Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add ham; cook 2 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Remove from pan; keep warm. Reduce heat to medium; recoat pan with cooking spray. Break eggs into hot pan; cook 1 minute on each side or until desired degree of doneness.

Place muffin halves, cut sides up, on a baking sheet. Spread 2 teaspoons chutney over bottom half of each muffin; top with 2 ham slices, 1 egg, and 1 tablespoon cheese. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons cheese over top half of each muffin. Broil 1 1/2 minutes or until bubbly. Place top halves of muffins over the bottom halves.
