One of the things I missed most about being a Celiac is that fact that I couldn’t have fast food breakfasts anymore. Oh I tried making everything from Sausage Biscuits to Breakfast Burritos but they just didn’t taste right.
Well today I’m here to tell you that not only have I perfected fast food breakfasts, but I have cut quite a few of the calories also.
This tasty breakfast sandwich is much healthier than the fast food one and in my opinion, tastes better too. Using the microwave shortens the cooking time so your sandwich is ready to eat when you are. I hope you enjoy this recipe.

Where’s the ‘Gluten Free’ part of this recipe?
English Muffins are not GF. I’m confused.
DG, Please forgive me, I have been running on very little sleep lately, with my mother being in and out of the hospital, working a full time job, and still trying to keep my blog up to date.
The gluten-free part is the English muffins, I forgot to put the “gluten-free” part in front of the English muffin part. There are several different brands of gluten-free muffins out now.
Glutino, Udi’s, Food for Life, just to name a few.
Again, I’m sorry for the confusion.
