Egg and Canadian bacon breakfast sandwiches

Meaty pork, rich avocado, juicy tomato and those protein powerhouses in a shell — eggs — make this one substantial breakfast sandwich. Roll up the sandwich fillings in a tortilla for a breakfast wrap, or lose the Canadian bacon to make this vegetarian.

Egg and Canadian bacon breakfast sandwich
Ingredients:

1½ teaspoons canola oil

2 ounces (4 slices) uncooked Canadian bacon

4 light, whole wheat hamburger buns

3 large eggs

4 large egg whites

1 medium, thinly sliced, uncooked scallion

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon black pepper

½ medium halved, pitted and peeled California (Hass) avocado, cut into 8 slices

1 large plum tomato cut into 8 slices

Directions:
Step 1

Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in large, heavy, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add bacon and cook, turning, until lightly browned, 1 ½ to 2 minutes. Place 1 slice of bacon on bottom of each bun. Keep warm.

Step 2

Remove skillet from heat; add remaining 1/2 teaspoon oil. Beat eggs, egg whites, scallion, salt, and pepper in medium bowl until blended; pour into skillet. Cook over medium heat until eggs begin to set, about 1 1/2 minutes, pushing egg mixture toward center of skillet to form large, soft curds; continue cooking until eggs are just set, about 3 minutes longer.

Step 3

Place one-fourth of eggs on top of each slice of bacon. Top with 2 avocado slices and 2 tomato slices; cover with tops of buns.
