This Low Calorie Bagel Breakfast Sandwich recipe is just 315 calories and it comes with 5 optional meaty protein boosts! I used my low calorie protein bagel recipe to make the calories extra low, but I also supplied tips on cutting the calories in store-bought bagels if you prefer to purchase your bagels.
Ingredients You’ll Need
- Olive Oil Spray

3 Ways to Cook the Eggs:
- Scrambled – crack the egg into a bowl and whisk well. Add to the hot skillet and allow to cook until mostly set. Fold the outer parts of the cooked eggs over the middle until you have an English muffin sized square of eggs. Flip and cook until completely set.
- Over Easy – Crack the egg into the hot skillet, cook for 2-3 minutes until the whites are set, but the yolk is still runny.
- Over Hard – Crack the egg into the hot skillet. Cover and cook for 3-5 minutes until the whites and yolk are set.
How to Make Bagel Breakfast Sandwiches:
- Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Spray with olive oil.
- Cook the eggs (see above for 3 ways) in the hot skillet.
- Meanwhile, add the bagel to a toaster and toast until desired doneness.
- Add the cheese to the bottom half of the bagel top with any desired protein, the cooked eggs and then the top of the bagel.
- Serve hot.
