Ingredients Needed

To prepare this yummy breakfast, you will need the following ingredients:

1. English Muffins: I use wholemeal but you can use your preferred type.
2. Bacon: for the leanest option, use either Canadian or Bacon Medallions
3. Tomatoes: either grape (baby plum) or cherry tomatoes for their sweetness
4. Mushrooms: I just used regular white mushroms
5. Onion: just a regular onion
6. Balsamic Vinegar: adds a depth of flavour and caramelization
7. Black Pepper - This basic yet essential flavour enhancer are key for elevating the taste of your dishes. No food will ever be bland when these are used to season to taste. I don't use salt in this dish as the bacon is high in sodium, but you can use if you prefer.
8. Low Calorie Spray: - Use your preferred choice of low calorie spray, I prefer olive oil or avocado sprays without any added emulsifiers.

Once you've gathered all the ingredients and prepared them accordingly, you're all set to create this easy and delightful recipe.
