Easy open faced egg and tomato breakfast melts – Sandwiches made on whole wheat English muffin, egg whites and scallions, topped with tomatoes and melted cheese.
Eggs and Tomato Breakfast Melts
Tomatoes, eggs and scallions are always a winning combination for me – especially now when summer tomatoes are at their sweetest! If you can’t find heirloom tomatoes, red grape tomatoes or cherry tomatoes would be just as great.

If we were to want to freeze these for the week, how would we go about that!
I Just made this and it turned out awesome! I added spinach (didn't have any green onion) freshly grated parmesan and of course I cant eat anything w/o sriracha sauce garnished with some dried chives I had. I was delicious and quit filling.
would these be good to freeze and reheat later? I am looking for something I can make ahead and just eat a little during the week.
Another tasty, quick and easy recipe! I made one of these for myself this morning with just a few substitutions. I used Pepperidge Farms Oatmeal bread lightly toasted. I also used Sargento's lowfat Pepperjack cheese as I didn't have the Monterrey and added a few leaves of fresh cilantro. What a great way to start out a Sunday morning. I love skinnytaste recipes.
Delicious breakfast! I made it for my fiance in 15 minutes this morning. Perfect way to start the day.
These were fantastic! 8 egg whites is a lot for a small container of Egg Beaters to handle though – in the future, I'll get the much larger container so I can make more of these! Served up one for each of us with some Simply Potatoes hash browns on the side. One of my favorite breakfast meals now!
These look so amazing, Gina! What a perfect protein & fiber-packed breakfast 🙂
These look soooo good. I could totally prep the scallions, tomatoes and cheese the night before for a quick breakfast in the morning! I bet they would be great for lunch too! Cannot wait to make these!
what do you think this would taste like with crab meat?
What an awesome breakfast! This looks so delicious, wholesome and easy enough for lazy weekends. Love it, Gina!
I've been eating so many eggs this pregnancy, it's become my favorite food lol! I could eat this for dinner tonight!
I need one of those right now!
yikes, perfection on a muffin…
This sounds like the perfect combo!I love eggs with scallions and tomatoes..and of course cheese makes everything better!
Brilliant breakfast!
Oooooo. I see these in my future, atop some gluten-free bread!
Just made these with a slice of gluten free bread for the muffin, and they are AWESOME! Thank you so much for the breakfast remix!!!
Aren't they awesome!!!! SO glad you enjoyed them!
I love this idea! This would be a great meal any time of day in my book.
This sounds like dinner tonight for the kiddos and me! Question Gina – how many WW points would this add per serving if I used 4 whole eggs and 4 egg whites?
I think it would increase it by 2 points each.
I love all your recipes Gina! 😀 Thank you so much from Venezuela!

Those sound amazing! I love savory breakfast treats!
