Reduced-fat cheese lowers calories while still melting well.

bacon

🥗Healthier: turkey bacon

💰Cheaper: ham

Turkey bacon reduces fat content while ham is often less expensive.

🥗Healthier: whole wheat dough

💰Cheaper: store-bought dough

Whole wheat adds fiber, while store-bought saves time.

Rinse hatch green chiles thoroughly and dry them with paper towels.

Roast hatch green chiles over an open flame until the skin blisters, flipping them occasionally.

Place roasted chiles in a Ziploc bag to steam them for easier peeling.

Peel the skin off the chiles, discarding the burnt peel, and remove the seeds from the middle.

Heat a flat griddle and add butter to it.

Crack a couple of eggs onto the griddle and season with salt and pepper.

Place roasted hatch green chiles on top of the eggs before flipping them over.

Fry the eggs to your desired doneness, preferably over easy for a runny yolk.

Split and butter the sides of two english muffins and toast them.

Lay down a piece of canadian bacon on each muffin half.

Place the fried egg with hatch green chiles on top of the canadian bacon.

Add a slice of fresh mozzarella on top of the egg and place in the oven to broil until the cheese is bubbly.

Remove from the oven and plate the sandwich, cutting into it to show the runny yolk.
