Ingredients

  • 4 bagels
  • 4 large eggs
  • 4 oz cream cheese
  • 4 oz sliced deli turkey
  • 2 oz baby spinach
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Method

  1. Split and toast the bagels until the cut faces are golden.

  2. Melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low. Beat the eggs with the salt and pepper and pour them in.

  3. Move the eggs slowly with a spatula, folding the set edges toward the middle, until they are just set and still glossy, about 3 minutes.

  4. Spread cream cheese generously on both bagel halves.

  5. Pile the eggs onto the bottom halves, lay the turkey and a handful of spinach over, and close the sandwiches.
