  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 1 bagel sandwich

Ingredients

Sandwich

  • 1 whole wheat bagel or homemade Greek yogurt bagel
  • 1 teaspoon pesto
  • ¼ avocado, mashed
  • Handful of arugula
  • 2 eggs (or equivalent sheet pan eggs slice, scrambled or fried)
  • 2 slices tomato
  • 2 tablespoons feta cheese, crumbled

Optional Add-ins

  • Bacon slices
  • Turkey sausage round

Instructions

  1. Toast the Bagel: Slice the bagel in half and toast each side until golden and crisp.
  2. Spread Pesto and Avocado: Spread a thin layer of pesto on one half of the toasted bagel. On the other half, spread the mashed avocado evenly.
  3. Assemble the Sandwich: On the pesto side, layer the arugula first, followed by the eggs, tomato slices, and crumbled feta cheese.
  4. Finish and Serve: Place the avocado-covered bagel half on top to close the sandwich. Slice in half and serve immediately.

Notes

  • To melt the feta cheese, place the assembled open-faced sandwich in the microwave for 30-45 seconds or in an air fryer at 350°F for about 3 minutes before closing the sandwich.
  • For additional protein, add breakfast sausage, bacon, or turkey bacon as desired.
