Egg and Salmon Sandwich Recipe
Egg and Salmon Sandwich

A healthy breakfast gives me a much-needed energy boost for the rest of the day. Plus research shows that people who are most successful at losing weight eat breakfast every day.

There are three things I include to make my breakfasts healthy: whole grains and lean protein to help me stay full right through until lunch, and some fruit or vegetables for added fiber.

This Egg & Salmon Sandwich is a delicious breakfast to help you head off weight gain. Smoked salmon and egg whites on a toasted whole-wheat English muffin is the perfect protein-rich power breakfast that will help you feel full all morning.
