Spinach, Egg and Mushroom Breakfast Bagel

      I am not a huge breakfast person but occasionally the mood strikes and I crave it. I usually eat just lunch and dinner with a snack thrown in here and there or maybe some candy. I know candy is not good for you but it is very tasty. I think I have mentioned before I  love my candy but every once and while I want some eggs. Today was one of those days. After giving it some serious thought and also checking out what I had available I decided on eggs, spinach, mushrooms, and egg bagel. I must say it was a good choice. So good I probably will be making it again in the near future. I might even make extra and freeze them for days when I am feeling lazy or have only a little bit of time.

    This sandwich was easy to make and not time consuming at all. I think most of the time was spent on prep work and even that only took a few minutes. I had enough to make two bagels but since it was only just me I shared with my babies. They gave it two paws up. Hehee.


     Since the extreme heat has finally made its self known be prepared to see a loy more sandwiches and salads. It is too hot for soup on a regular basis and also time consuming meals. That's not to say I will stop making them occasionally but the heat seems to sap my energy. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this sandwich as much as I did and try it for yourself or a variation of it.
