Breakfast is said to be the most important meal of the day, so there is no reason why you can’t have a healthy one that will not only satisfy your appetite but also leave you feeling guilt-free. Skipping breakfast should never be an option as the decision can negatively affect your health.

In 2012, a review was published in the journal Obesity Reviews which observed 153 studies that focused on excess weight and eating habits. The review found that although small, there was a correlation between excess weight and skipping breakfast.

As such, below are five healthy breakfast sandwich recipes to consider trying for your first meal of the day.

1. Microwave Egg and Vegetable Breakfast Sandwich

No pan is required for this quick and easy sandwich that is filled with delicious fresh vegetables. Simply add egg whites and spinach to a bowl and place it in the microwave and you can be eating this yummy meal within five minutes.

2. Easy $3 Vegan Breakfast Sandwich

By making this sandwich at home, not only do you save money but you avoid the long line in your local deli ordering up something that is most likely greasy and unhealthy.

3. Healthy Avocado Egg Salad and Salmon Sandwich

With ingredients that include cucumbers, chives and Dijon mustard, this open-faced sandwich will be a repeated one at your breakfast table.

4. Freezer Breakfast Sandwiches

This is a great breakfast option that you can prepare well in advance. Make enough breakfast sandwiches to get you through the work week and then pop them in the freezer. Ready in one to two minutes, you can be chowing down on a delicious sandwich in no time. Try leaving out the cheese and cooking the egg with spinach or broccoli.

5. Sun-dried Tomato, Raw Sprouts And Cream Cheese Bagel Sandwich

Filled with protein in addition to dried fig and bean sprouts, this healthy breakfast is a great way to start your day.
