DIY Breakfast Sandwiches – Freezer Friendly

Quick and easy healthier breakfast sandwiches made with veggie packed egg patties, crispy bacon, cheddar, and pesto on an Ezekiel english muffin. Make these ahead of time and freeze for busy mornings!Β 

As much as I love my green smoothies for breakfast nothing beats a breakfast sandwich with all the fixings like egg, cheese and bacon. Once and a while when those cravings kick in I opt for my homemade version made with real ingredients that you can feel good about as oppose to those fast food options that you pick up in the drive thru.

These DIY breakfast sandwiches are not only the perfect hand held Sunday brunch but they are also freezer friendly. Go ahead and meal prep a few of these and freeze them in a large freezer bag to grab, heat and eat on busy weekends or for road trips and skip that coffee drive through!

You can really add any fillings that you like but I went with the classics and just added veggies I had leftover in the fridge to the mini egg patties. ToΒ make perfect breakfast sandwich egg patties you’ll want to use one of these non stick egg rings which I’m tempted to try next for my fluffy gluten free pancakes!
