Portobello Mushroom and Fried Egg Sandwiches with Ham and Tomatoes

March 6, 2017 By Kristi Rimkus 19 Comments

You won’t miss this bread in these fried egg sandwiches when they’re wrapped in meaty roasted portobello mushrooms.

Merriam-Webster Dictionary describes a sandwich as one of the following . . .

  • slices of bread with a filling in-between
  • a slice of bread covered with food
  • “something resembling a sandwich; especially : composite structural material consisting of layers often of high-strength facings bonded to a low strength central core”

I’m not sure about you, but composite structural material doesn’t sound good to me! This fried egg sandwich recipe probably fits into the composite structural material category, so I’m glad it tastes better than it sounds.

We roasted our portobello mushrooms in the oven, topped them with slices of ham, then fried eggs that were cooked until the yolks had just set. After that, we topped them with fresh tomatoes, green onions and a sprinkle of sea salt for good measure.

Did we miss the bread on our fried egg sandwiches? Not a chance thanks to those savory mushrooms and salty ham!

Happy, healthy cooking!

Ingredients

  • 2 large portobello mushrooms, cleaned of gills and stem
  • 4 tablespoons low fat Greek salad dressing, Italian works too
  • 4 large eggs
  • 4 slices deli ham, thin slices
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 medium roma tomato, thinly sliced
  • 4 tablespoons green onion, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Brush the inside of each mushroom with 1 tablespoon Greek or Italian dressing. Roast in the oven for 20 - 25 minutes until just tender.
  3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and spray with cooking spray. Crack four eggs into the pan, add a tablespoon of water and cover with a lid. Cook 3 - 5 minutes until the yolk is cooked to your desired doneness. We like our slightly runny.
  4. Spread each mushroom with a teaspoon of Dijon mustard then top each with with 2 slices ham, 2 eggs, slices of tomato and 2 tablespoons green onion.

    It is the most mouthwatering, composite structural material I've ever seen! Have a fantastic weekend, Kristi.

      Thank Mari - I thought that was funny - composite structural material to define a sandwich. Have a good Sunday!

    Ooo I love portobello mushrooms! Such a great idea to use it as "bread" - and I swear runny eggs make everything better. Looks yum!

      The egg yolk running down the sides of the mushroom was my hubby's favorite part of the meal. Have a good week. :)

      I'm not as big a mushroom fan as my husband is, but I have to admit this "sandwich" turned out pretty tasty.

    Love this idea! Roasted portabellos are the best, and I'm sure taste amazing topped with a fried egg, ham and tomatoes. Pinning now!

      The mushrooms and eggs made it a hearty meal. If I weren't watching my calories so carefully I'd melt a thin slice of cheddar over the mushroom before I put the eggs on. Have a wonderful week!

    Nope, I wouldn't be missing the bread either. That looks amazing. Pull those eggs off a little sooner than 'just set' and I'm all over that dish. It looks delicious.

      You sound like my husband. I like a soft yolk and he likes a slightly runny yolk. Good thing frying eggs makes it easy enough to please everyone!

    Oh super yum. Anything with a fried egg basically is a winner in my book but have the portobello act as the bread throws it over the top.

      We're trying to keep the carbs down, but really missing sandwiches. This comes a close second. :)

    Great idea! We actually had egg sandwiches for lunch this past weekend. I ended up with just eggs after eating one too many sweet pastries for the day. I would have been able to have a sandwich if I had thought of this. I see it appearing in my future!

      Hi Emily! If you like mushrooms, you'd like this dish. I have to say I'm not a big mushroom fan, so my husband was the happy camper with this meal. :)
