Move over McDonalds!

When I was a kid and we'd go on long trips out of town, we would swing through a drive through on the way out. It was a treat just a few times a year, as fast food is meant to be.

When we'd go for breakfast on those out of town trips I always looked forward an egg mcmuffin sandwich.

Unfortunately, there is not a lot of nutritional value in these little guys. I needed a solution. Enter Becca's kitchen. :)

Quick and easy, my version is low fat, high fiber, and just as delicious as the inspiration. Jon and I love these for a quick breakfast on the go.

Here's to you and your culinary adventures, friend. Cheers!
