this easy breakfast sandwich combines all of my favorite savory breakfast items in one single sandwich. loaded with protein, fiber and fat, it’s satisfying and delicious morning meal.

I used to eat eggs for breakfast every single day. But when I was in grad school and shopping on a strict budget, I started eating eggs for lunch and dinner because they were affordable, easy and versatile!

I love that you can get super creative with eggs and spin them into a million different meals, but for this sandwich, I stuck with the basics. I combined all my favorite savory breakfast items and let me tell you, they make a really good (flavorful!) team.

You’re getting heart-healthy fat, protein and fiber all in one handheld sandwich which means you can easily pack this up to go (something I always appreciate about a meal!)

You can mix and match this up in whatever way works best for you. Are you a huge fan of bacon? It would go great in here. Not a regular hummus fan, use your favorite flavor (almost all of them would work well here!). Not into eggs, you can omit them and still get protein from the hummus.

Gluten-free? Sub your favorite GF bread here and enjoy! Dairy-Free? Omit the cheese from the recipe.

Make your own, but make sure you share your version with me because I always love to see your creative spins! It helps keep my morning routine interesting too! 🙂
