Most store bought frozen breakfast sandwiches, like Jimmy Dean breakfast sandwiches, or fast food options, like McDonald’s Egg McMuffins, are not keto friendly. The bread has carbohydrates and wheat plus they are filled with processed ingredients and preservatives.
Luckily, it’s pretty easy to make homemade breakfast sandwiches that are low carb with keto bread, scramble egg, bacon, cheddar cheese and sausage.
