Hi friends!

Today we’re talking about back to school breakfasts. We all know it’s hard to get back into a morning routine once school starts up again. And since you guys know breakfast is my favorite meal of the day, I hate when I hear about people skipping it this time of year because they feel like their mornings are too busy.

This Egg-In-A-Hole Breakfast Sandwich is a protein-packed, healthy breakfast recipe that's ready in under 5 minutes. The perfect way to start your day!

Enter this egg sandwich. It’s ready in 5 minutes, fun to make and eat and packed with protein, healthy fats and whole grains. Win win win!

This sandwich is everything: warm turkey, melty cheese, freshly sliced avocado and a perfectly cooked egg on whole grain bread (I used Dave’s Killer Bread 21 Grain & Seed). If that doesn’t sound like breakfast perfection, I don’t know what does!
