Freezer Bagel Breakfast Sandwiches
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup (60ml) 2% reduced-fat milk
- 1/4 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup (29g) sun-dried tomatoes, packed without oil, finely chopped
- 4 ounces (113g) frozen leaf spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- 6 everything Bagel Thins, toasted
- 6 slices ultra-thin sharp cheddar
- 1 12-ounce (340g) jar roasted red bell peppers, drained
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). In a medium bowl, whisk together milk, salt, pepper, and eggs. Stir in sun-dried tomatoes and spinach. Pour the mixture into an 11-by-7-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake until set, 18–20 minutes. Cut into 6 pieces.
On the bottom half of each Bagel Thin, layer 1 cheese slice and 1 piece of egg mixture. Pat the bell peppers dry with paper towels; divide evenly over egg mixture and top with remaining Bagel Thins.
Freeze in zip-top freezer bags between layers of wax or parchment paper for up to three months. To thaw and reheat, wrap 1 sandwich loosely in a paper towel. Microwave on medium for 1 minute, then microwave on high until thoroughly heated, 1 1/2–2 minutes.
