Egg McMuffin or gas station breakfast sandwich? Um, no. Ick. Make your own in record time.
Ingredients:
Slice of prosciutto
6-inch piece of French bread (I used a gluten-free brand)
6 fresh spinach leaves (the bagged kind is cool)
1 egg
1 tablespoon thyme
Preparation:
Preheat oven on Broil - High. Put bread on a baking sheet and toast it in oven for 2 minutes, without toppings. Scramble the egg on the stovetop or in the microwave. Layer spinach leaves onto the bread, then the scrambled egg, then the prosciutto.
Cook & Serve:
Broil until the prosciutto is crispy. Sprinkle with thyme. ANOTHER OPTION: Top with a slice of cheese. Or hot sauce. Whatever floats your boat, my fellow cooks.
A Little Backstory:
My ex-husband was positively weird about dirtying dishes. As if making a smoothie was too hard because then you'd (*gasp*) have to clean the blender! If you're the type who doesn't want to muck up a pan by cooking an egg in the morning, here's an easy out: Whisk the egg in a cup or ramekin (I prefer a splash of milk in it, and a dash of pepper). Put in the microwave for 1 minute on high. You'll get a perfect, fluffy scrambled egg -- and the dishwasher gets one cup. No muss, no fuss.
