We took one of our favorite decadent, HG-ified breakfasts and turned it into a microwavable mug surprise. Weeeee!

Ingredients:
1/2 tbsp. fat-free mayonnaise
1/2 tsp. Best Foods/Hellmann's Dijonnaise

1/2 cup fat-free liquid egg substitute (like Egg Beaters Original)
1 oz. (about 2 slices) 97 - 98% fat-free ham, roughly chopped
Half a light English muffin, lightly toasted

Directions:
To make sauce, combine mayo, Dijonnaise, yogurt, and butter in a small dish. (Use a microwave-safe dish if you'd like to warm your sauce before serving.) Mix well and set aside.

Lightly spray a large microwave-safe mug with nonstick spray. Add egg substitute and microwave for 1 minute.

Gently stir and add ham. Break muffin half into bite-sized pieces and add to the mug. Microwave for 45 - 60 seconds, until set.
