5-Minute Breakfast Sandwich (GF | DF)

Cozy, Nourishing Morning Fuel with Zero-Stress Prep

Sometimes as girls, we forget to feed ourselves. We’re running around, busy, distracted, and suddenly it’s noon and we haven’t had a single bite of actual food.

This recipe is your gentle reminder that feeding yourself doesn’t have to be hard — or time-consuming. Some days, we need something quick, nourishing, and zero stress. And that’s exactly what this 5-minute breakfast sandwich is.

Warm, filling, gluten-free, dairy-free, and made entirely in the microwave. Yes… we are leaning all the way into the lazy girl lifestyle.

It’s cozy, it’s customizable, and most importantly, it keeps you full so you can get on with your day.

How To Make It

Instructions

1. Make the Flax “English Muffin”

• In a small microwave-safe dish, combine the ground flaxseed, baking powder, salt, and one egg.
• Mix until you have a thick, even batter.
• Sprinkle the top with everything bagel seasoning.
• Microwave for 90 seconds, or until firm.
• Once cooked, remove from the dish, slice in half, and toast lightly for texture.

Tip: Any small round dish works — it shapes the “muffin” perfectly.

2. Make the Egg Layer

• Using the same dish (lazy girl rules, minimal cleanup), whisk together the mayo and second egg until smooth.
• Microwave for 60 seconds, or until fully set.
• Slide the cooked egg onto your toasted flax muffin.

3. Assemble Your Sandwich

Time to build your lazy girl masterpiece.

I layered mine with:

• Chipotle mayo
• Crisp lettuce
• Fresh sliced tomato
• A generous drizzle of Louisiana hot sauce

Top it with your warm egg layer, close the sandwich, and dig in.

It’s shockingly good for something that took less time than washing your face.
