The Ultimate Open Faced Breakfast Spamwich Sandwich Recipes

OPEN-FACED BREAKFAST SANDWICH

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a small saucepot over medium heat add the oil, rosemary, thyme sprigs, garlic, and a pinch of salt. Heat until the garlic begins to brown and thyme is crisp. Strain the oil and remove the thyme to a paper towel-lined plate. Discard the rosemary and garlic, but reserve the oil.
• Brush one side of each piece of bread with the oil and place them oiled-side up on a wire rack fitted inside a baking sheet with sides. On another wire rack place the strips of speck ham and brush the top of each with maple syrup. Bake in the oven until both the toast and ham are golden and crisp, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile make the eggs. In a nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat, add a few tablespoons of the reserved olive oil. Crack each egg over the pan and allow to fry until most of the whites are cooked, about 4 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and a grind or two of pepper, then lower the heat and cover until the top of the eggs are cooked, but the yolks are not, about 2 minutes more.
• To assemble the sandwiches: Spread a tablespoon of grape jelly on the oiled side of each piece of bread. Top with a few strips of folded over ham, an egg and a few sprigs of the reserved fried thyme. Garnish with the shredded Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• Place SPAM® with Bacon slices into the same skillet and pour 1/4 cup of reserved pineapple juice over the SPAM® with Bacon; cook until juice evaporates, about 3 minutes. Flip SPAM® with Bacon; pour remaining pineapple juice in and cook until evaporated, about 3 minutes more.
• Crack eggs into a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat; cook until whites are firm and yolks are done to your liking.
• Toast bagels; spread bagel halves with mashed avocado. Top each bagel half with tomato slices, SPAM® with Bacon slices, an egg, and a pineapple slice; top with just a splash of balsamic vinegar.

Try to have some good carbohydrates, lean protein, fibre, and make it colorful! This means including some grains (such as this sunflower flax loaf) to keep you fuelled throughout the day, some protein and fibre to keep you full until your next meal, and some colorful fruits or vegetables to ensure you are getting a variety of nutrients. Do you get hungry mid-morning? You might need to add some fibre and protein to your breakfast. You can find fibre in whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. You can find protein in meat products, fish, dairy products, nuts, seeds, and more! Don't have time in the morning? Save time by substituting guacamole for the avocado and salsa for the tomato, and soft-boil some eggs the night before so you can substitute the poached egg for a boiled one!
