When I want a breakfast that’s quick and easy to make, this Light Bacon and Egg Breakfast Sandwich Recipe is one of my go-to breakfast sandwich recipes. It’s basic but oh-so flavorful and filling. I feel like I’m getting all the tastes I crave but for a lot fewer Weight Watchers Points.
I’ve also made these savory little sandwiches for lunch and dinner too, as they are just super fast and easy, and everyone loves them. And with just 4 Points per sandwich, I can save room for dessert while still staying within my Points budget.
These can also be prepared a day before and reheated in the toaster oven (but I’d wait to add the mayo until just before serving). Definitely, a great recipe to use when you need something fast and easy, but still light and healthy.

How is this 4 pp? Sandwich thin is 3pts, turkey bacon is 1pp per slice. Thats already 5pp….
When building recipes, it’s best to add up all the nutritional stats of each ingredient, and then calculate the points + based on your totals. It’s not accurate to calculate a recipe’s points value by adding up the points + of each ingredient.
I like the sandwich thin, but loathe onion,… and the idea of the egg substitute :-(
I use 2 frozen Banquet Lite Original Brown ‘N Serve sausage links (1pp each link), a slice of LandOLakes 2% deli cheese, 1 real whole egg fried in pam sprayed frying pan, on a Lite Multi-grain English Muffin = 6 pp All that protein and fiber holds me for a good long time!
