Over the years, my children have developed their own list of favorites from Starbucks. What can I say? They get it from their mama. Their list is detailed and precise filled with beverages and foods alike. For about the past year, my daughter’s fave has been the Reduced-Fat Turkey Bacon & Cage-Free Egg White Sandwich (sans cheese). It’s my fault. It’s one of my faves and one day I let her have a taste. Ever since, I’ve been buying two.
There are a few things that make this my go-to. It’s simple, it’s filling and it’s good. My daughter likes it for one reason: it’s good. It’s not terribly priced – one sandwich is $3.95. But when I am buying two sandwiches, more than once a week, it starts to add up. So, what’s a girl to do: make it at home.
These breakfast sandwiches are super easy to make, and the best is that you can make a big batch, freeze em and them pop em out as you wish into the microwave, and a minute later you have deliciousness at the ready.
