About Me

Welcome! This is a blog for the novice cook. Cooking is my passion, but I often stumble through recipes, especially since I started cooking light. I am building my own set of go-to recipes that I can make easily, documenting them as I go (I promise I won't post anything that isn't good!). I am making only easy, everyday recipes. Here, on The Simple Plate, I will document new and good-for-the-waistline recipes I have attempted, as well as tips I learned along the way. Feel free to leave me your favorite recipes...I'm always willing to try something new! Click the link on the right-hand side to follow me! Enjoy and thanks for visiting!

The Better-For-You Breakfast Sandwich

I love breakfast sandwiches, but they are usually loaded with fat and calories. This version is low in fat and calories, tastes great, and keeps you full for hours! It's 7 WW Points Plus per serving.




Egg, Cheese, and Turkey Bacon Breakfast Sandwich

1 spray olive oil cooking spray
3 egg whites
1 slice reduced-fat American Cheese
1 slice turkey bacon
1 bagel thin


Spray a medium-sized ramekin with cooking spray (this ensures that the egg forms into a circle to fit bagel), add egg whites. Microwave on high for one minute. Let egg whites rest for a few seconds and microwave another 30 seconds. Flip egg white with a fork to cook other side, microwave on high another 1 minute or until egg whites have cooked. Meanwhile, toast bagel and heat up turkey bacon for 30 seconds in microwave. Place bagel on a plate, top with egg white. Add cheese (the steam from the egg white will melt the cheese), top with turkey bacon and other half of bagel thin. Enjoy!
