Easy Recipes For Breakfast

Egg Mock-Muffin Sandwich

Ingredients

2 English Muffins (toasted)
1 large Egg
1/4 cup Egg Substitute
2 slices Canadian Bacon
2 empty Tuna Cans/ Similar Cans (washed & label removed)
2 slices Less-fat Cheddar Cheese
Pepper (freshly ground)
Canola Cooking Spray

Instructions

Use canola cooking spray to coat half of a 9" or 10" nonstick frying pan and place it over medium heat.
Beat the egg with the egg substitute in a bowl and set aside.
Place bacon in the pan, over the spray-coated area. Spray the canola cooking spray on the inside of the tuna cans and place them on the non-sprayed side of the pan.
Flip over when the bottom side of the bacon is light brown in color and cook the other side. After both the sides are cooked, remove bacon from the pan and set aside.
Pour 1/4 cup of the egg mixture into each tuna can. Sprinkle pepper to taste. Use a butter knife to cut around the inside of the cans as the egg surface begins to firm. This is done to free the edges.
Now, turn the eggs over with a cake fork and cook for another minute. Remove eggs from the can.
Layer an English muffin bottom with a cheese slice, then an egg patty, followed by a piece of Canadian bacon, and the muffin top. The egg mock-muffin sandwich is ready!

Cinnamon Vanilla Toasted Oats

Ingredients

1/4 tsp Cinnamon (ground)
1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
1/2 tsp Water
1/2 Rolled / Old-fashioned Oats
Canola Cooking Spray

Instructions

Put cinnamon in a very small cup and stir in the vanilla extract, followed by water. Set aside.
Lightly coat a nonstick frying pan with the canola cooking spray. Place about 1/2 cup of quick or old-fashioned oats in the pan, over medium heat. Allow the oats to toast for a minute or so.
Drizzle the vanilla mixture over the top. Stir the oats continuously, until they assume a light brown color. Cook for 2 more minutes.
