Why You’ll Love This Recipe

Ingredients

(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

bread, pita, or English muffins
eggs
olive oil
fresh spinach
tomato slices
feta cheese
black olives
salt
black pepper

Directions

I start by heating a pan with a little olive oil. I crack the eggs into the pan and cook them to my preferred doneness, seasoning them with salt and black pepper. In the same pan, I lightly sauté the spinach just until wilted.

I toast the bread, pita, or English muffins until warm and lightly crisp. I assemble the sandwich by layering the eggs, spinach, tomato slices, feta cheese, and olives. I close the sandwich and serve it warm.

Servings and timing

This recipe makes 1 sandwich, which serves 1 person. I usually spend around 5 minutes preparing the ingredients and about 10 minutes cooking. I like that it’s ready in about 15 minutes from start to finish.

Variations

I sometimes add sliced cucumber for extra freshness. When I want more protein, I include sliced grilled chicken or turkey. I’ve also added a spoon of hummus or yogurt sauce for extra creaminess.

storage/reheating

I prefer eating this sandwich fresh. If I need to store it, I wrap it tightly and keep it in the refrigerator for up to 1 day. When reheating, I warm it gently in a pan or oven so the bread stays crisp.

FAQs

Can I make this sandwich ahead of time?

I can prep the ingredients ahead, but I like assembling it fresh so the bread doesn’t get soggy.

What type of bread works best?

I like using pita or English muffins, but crusty bread also works well.

Can I make this sandwich vegetarian?

I already make it vegetarian, but I can easily add or remove vegetables to suit my taste.

Can I use scrambled eggs instead of fried eggs?

I often use scrambled eggs, and they work just as well in this sandwich.

Is this sandwich good for brunch?

I think it’s perfect for brunch because it’s filling, flavorful, and easy to serve.

Conclusion

I keep this Mediterranean Breakfast Sandwich in my breakfast rotation because it’s simple, satisfying, and full of flavor. I like how it brings fresh ingredients and bold tastes together in a way that makes mornings feel a little more enjoyable.
