Move Over Pop-Tarts, Breakfast Has A New Pal!

Poor breakfast is probably the most forgotten meal of the day. In your daily mad-morning-dash to school, work, or play, it is easy to forget to eat something before you leave the house. Now for someone with a packed schedule, a mere bowl of cereal or a single granola bar will not tide you over until lunchtime. Luckily, I have found the perfect 15 minute morning meal that will keep you satisfied longer.

This bacon, egg, and cheese muffin may seem like a standard breakfast item, but tastier than a McDonald’s meal with half the calories!

Now on with the deliciousness!

Here are the ingredients for one muffin:

2 eggs

2 sliced Canadian bacon

2 slices processed American cheese (I recommend Kraft)

1 English muffin, split and toasted

1 tablespoon cream cheese, softened

Prep time is only about five minutes, which is perfect for a hungry girl on the go. To start off, bring 2-3 inches of water to boil in a saucepan or skillet with high sides. Reduce heat; simmer gently.

Break cold eggs, one at a time, in a saucer. Holding the dish close to the surface of the water, slip eggs, one at a time, into the water. Careful not to scald yourself! Cook, uncovered, until whites are completely set and yolks begin to thicken, only about three minutes.

Meanwhile, spread cream cheese over muffin halves and then top with cheese slices. In a small skillet, cook Canadian bacon until heated through; place over cheese. To finish, use a slotted spoon and place eggs over bacon. Now wait for it to cool off before you enjoy. Now…go! You will be set for your long and busy schedule.
