Check out that grams of fat comparison! Not even getting to other factors like sodium, you can see this egg white melt is a better bet than fast food breakfast sandwiches.
This cheesy breakfast melt takes no longer to make than the grueling wait of a drive thru, and is no doubt more affordable.
I use egg whites to save calories and increase protein, but if you’re bulking or just like them, piling a fried egg on this sandwich will get near the same result, just a few more calories.
