Egg White Frittata Breakfast Sandwich is inspired by my work associate, Rachel, who creates her own version of an Egg McMuffin, but much healthier and tastier. I decided to give it a try with egg whites and spruce it up with a variety of savory vegetables cooked frittata style. This Egg White Frittata Breakfast Sandwich makes the perfect breakfast sandwich. Adults and children love this breakfast sandwich, If you use the 100 calorie high-fiber English Muffin, the whole meal is 315 calories, 7 grams, of fiber, and 26.2 grams of protein. What is better than a healthy breakfast that is easy to make and portable?
