Lately, I have been really craving sandwiches. I want them for breakfast, lunch and dinner. And in my quest for a good Breakfast Sandwich Recipe, that tasted yummy and was not full of preservatives like the frozen kind at the store.

I ended up creating my own Spinach and Egg White Sandwich Recipe that was definitely a hit! My skinny version of this popular American food is loaded with protein, fiber, and calcium. It’s definitely larger than those skimpy ones you get at restaurants, so it’s very satisfying.

I also love that you can really mix this recipe up and try it with different meats and/or veggies without affecting the point total too much. I can’t wait to try out some yummy ideas I have!!

If you too are looking for tasty, low calorie breakfast sandwiches, you must give this one a try!

    • It’s the cheese that melted on the sandwich! Very good sandwich for such few points.

  1. We started weight watchers in May of 2010. Finding something hearty for breakfast is a challenge. This breakfast sandwich is tasty and filling. We eat them almost every morning! My kids who are 13 and 16 absolutely love them!

  2. This was very good, I would definitely recommend it. I didnt have any spinach, and I also used a whole egg instead of egg whites. It is very filling and I will be making it again.
