The best breakfast sandwich is actually a sandwich inside a sandwich! To recreate this next-level morning meal, fry eggs inside crispy cheese rounds (we'll talk you through this easy process). Then pile those, sun-dried tomatoes, and arugula between toasted English muffins for a handheld feast that will make your day.

With 10 minutes and four ingredients, you can whip up a restaurant-style avocado toast sandwich. Make this a regular occurrence and you'll save so much money over the course of the year—and can switch up the other elements as you see fit. Steamed asparagus spears are only the beginning.

Air-Fryer Breakfast Burritos
View Recipe
Who says breakfast sandwich ideas must include bread? If bagels and biscuits are invited to the breakfast party, we say tortillas can totally tip-toe in, too. In this easy air-fryer recipe, we essentially tuck a cheesy, chili-spiced egg scramble inside a tortilla for a better-than-fast-food breakfast burrito.
You deserve better than coffee and a granola bar on those running-late mornings. Carve out some time on a weekend and stock your freezer with a batch of these make-ahead breakfast sandwiches and you can fuel up in a well-balanced, warm way any morning for the next month (if they last that long!). On one of those harried mornings, grab a frozen sandwich, reheat in the microwave for about 2 minutes, and devour it as you hit the road.

Why wait until lunch to start consuming veggies? Bright baby spinach and juicy red tomatoes give this Mediterranean breakfast sandwich recipe a burst of fresh flavor, plus some extra fiber and vitamins.

Cheesy Egg Sandwiches
View Recipe
Think of these breakfast sandwiches like a mash-up of grilled cheese (yes, please!) and a classic egg sandwich. Start by sizzling up a couple of omelets, then stuff those eggs inside two slices of mozzarella- and veggie-topped bread. Griddle each sandwich, slice in half, then prepare to experience brunch bliss.
Test Kitchen Tip: Our original recipe calls for mozzarella, but any of your favorite cheese styles could certainly be substituted for—or added alongside—the mozz.
Skip your usual grab-and-go bagel and cream cheese in favor of an ooey-gooey, irresistible bagel breakfast sandwich. Featuring a heavenly combination of brown sugar, honey, and golden raisins, our homemade apple compote recipe makes a sweet, unique sauce. Try it with a whole-wheat, cinnamon-raisin, apple-cinnamon, plain, chocolate chip, blueberry, or French toast bagel as the base—any would play nicely with the dessert-inspired toppings.

Egg and Sausage Bread Bakes

Rather than sandwiching the filling between slices of bread, we're stuffing it into a hollowed out loaf. Here, sausage, eggs, peppers, and onions combine to make the filling. Slice it and serve as a twist on a classic sausage and egg breakfast sandwich.
Delicious as it may be, the typical breakfast sandwich doesn't exactly scream health food. “Breakfast sandwiches are notorious for not being a healthy food,” Klamer says. “They tend to be high in calories and saturated fat and low in fiber.” But there's no reason to write them off completely.
An egg and cheese sandwich today usually tallies about 300 to 350 calories. That leaves room to include a piece of fruit, either from a restaurant or at home, to deliver a balanced meal within the 400 to 425 calorie range that meets the needs of most adults.
Spread English muffins with butter (optional) and place an egg round on each one. Add cheese, wrap in foil, and voila. Refrigerate (4-5 days) or freeze (no limit, lol). To reheat, you can use the oven, microwave, toaster oven, or some combination of all!
Few people know that eating something like sausage and eggs everyday or every two days can actually be harmful to their health. Eating regularly is important for your health since it keeps your blood vessels healthy and keeps your muscles nourished. Staying healthy is much easier when you have a regular, healthy diet.
With the most calories, total fat, saturated fat, and sodium, the Burger King Double Sausage, Egg & Cheese Biscuit is the unhealthiest fast-food breakfast sandwich on the list. Not to mention that it also has 2 grams of harmful trans fat.
Take 100 calories worth of egg whites (seven large whites) for example: They contain 25 grams of protein, 0 grams of fat, and 2 grams of carbs. One tablespoon of peanut butter—which clocks in at 96 calories—provides just 3.5 grams of protein, 8 grams of fat, and 3.5 grams of carbs.
You could survive, but bread, milk and butter alone would make for a pretty unbalanced diet with too little fiber and not enough fresh veg or protein. This could leave you malnourished, constipated and exhausted.
Are Bananas with Peanut Butter Healthy? Yes! The carbohydrates from the banana will give you energy, and then the protein and healthy fats from the peanut butter will keep you full. Putting peanut butter in your banana smoothie makes it filling AND delicious.
This easy, satisfying breakfast sandwich recipe calls for American cheese, but it's equally delicious with Gruyère or sharp cheddar. Feel free to use your favorite toast if you don't have English muffins. A dash of vinegary hot sauce is a great addition here.
Step 3 – Wrap and Store the Sandwiches in the Fridge or Freezer. I used foil to wrap these breakfast sandwiches so you can easily reheat them in the toaster oven. Store the sandwiches in the fridge for about 5 days, or the freezer for a few months.
You can prep as many as you'd like! I recommend leaving them out of the freezer the night before you want them. Let the sandwich defrost in the refrigerator overnight and then reheat in the morning by placing in the microwave for 45 seconds.
No.It's not good for you by any means, but it is also not bad for you unless you eat a lot. It's a weird question kind of, but eating too much sand can cause abdominal pain, diarrhea or vomiting.
An egg sandwich can be a healthy option for breakfast or lunch. To make a healthy egg sandwich, start with a whole grain bread, such as 100% whole wheat or rye bread. Then add some lean protein, such as Canadian bacon, smoked salmon, or avocado. Finally, add some healthy toppings, such as tomato, spinach, or cucumber.
A sandwich is as healthy as the topping you use to build it. While there are toppings that add valuable nutrients and health benefits, many of the common sandwich toppings aren't quite as beneficial—and they're very high in calories.
McDonald's isn't the healthiest breakfast option out there, but there are a few menu items that are registered dietitian-approved in a pinch. The Sausage or Egg McMuffin, a Sausage Burrito, or the Maple Fruit & Oatmeal are among the healthier options available on the McDonald's breakfast menu.
