The only breakfast sandwich you’ll ever need! The bagel is high protein, the eggs are high protein, the mayo is magically high protein because of Extra Firm Silken Tofu!

Ingredients

Instructions
 

  • For the vegan mayo, follow this recipe: Vegan Tofu Mayo.
  • Stir the liquid Just Egg, baking powder and flour together really well.
  • In a small low-medium heat skillet, pour in egg mixture. Allow to cook on one side, with the pan covered (I used a baking sheet b/c who has a matching pan lid?), until top of the egg patty starts to get dry. Then flip.
  • Once egg is cooked, put cheese slices on top (while still in the pan) and cover the pan again. This should melt the cheese. If the cheese doesn’t fully melt, I like to spritz a little bit of water in the pan and re-cover it; the humidity helps melt the cheese.
  • Alternatively, you can use two Just Egg patties if that's easier or more available for you. The calories/macros end up very similar.
  • Toast bagel, slather on the tofu mayo, top with egg and cheese.

This is a really easy, high protein breakfast to make. Admittedly, it’s pretty much vegan junk food, but hey, sometimes you have cravings! I used some high protein bagels, which are absurdly high in protein but still taste good somehow. We are also using a high protein vegan mayo that’s made with silken tofu.

Ingredients

  • High Protein Bagels – I used Sola Plain Bagels, but I also love Better Bagels. Both are very high in protein and are still somehow delicious. You could use regular bagels too, but the calories/macros may be different from what’s listed in the recipe card.
  • High Protein Mayo – I make my own with the recipe linked in the recipe card. It’s made with silken tofu which is where it gets its protein!
  • Vegan Cheese Slices – I like Kraft No-Cheese slices but Follow Your Heart slices are great too.

“Egg”

  • Just Egg – I used the liquid Just Egg, but you could also just use one of the Just Egg Patties which could save some time.
  • Flour, baking powder – we are adding this to the Just Egg liquid to get it to make a patty!
  • Alternatively, you could just use two Just Egg patties instead. The macros/calories end up very similar. I write it both ways because some grocery stores carry one option but not the other.

Instructions

  • For the vegan mayo, follow this recipe: Vegan Tofu Mayo.
  • Stir together the liquid Just Egg, baking powder and flour. I like to use a whisk so it’s really well mixed.
  • In a small low-medium heat skillet, pour in egg mixture. Allow to cook on one side, with the pan covered (I used a baking sheet b/c who has a matching pan lid?), until top of the egg patty starts to get dry. Then flip it over.
  • Once egg is cooked on both sides, put the vegan cheese slices on top (while still in the pan).
    • Cover the pan again. This should melt the cheese. If the cheese doesn’t fully melt, I like to spritz a little bit of water in the pan and re-cover it; the humidity helps melt the cheese.
  • Toast the bagel, slather on the tofu mayo, top with egg and cheese.
