open-faced protein-packed "egg mcmuffin"

this is my go-to breakfast as of late.  it tastes delicious and since there's so much protein and fiber, i stay full until lunch.  this is an original recipe, i guess.  omit sausage if you're really worried about your sodium intake.

ingredients

1/2 whole wheat english muffin
garlic salt
1/2 C egg whites
small handful of spinach and mushrooms
2 turkey sausage links, sliced in half lengthwise
sprinkle of fresh parmesan cheese

directions

grease a small microwavable bowl--about the same circumference as the english muffin.  pour in egg whites and cook on high for 1 1/2 minutes.  meanwhile, toast the english muffin and sauté the spinach and mushrooms.  lightly butter the muffin and sprinkle lightly with garlic salt.  warm sausage in the microwave then layer on the muffin first, followed by veggies, egg and parmesan.  voila!
