Cooking Steps
-
Wash and dry produce.
-
Roughly chop spinach. Trim and thinly slice scallion greens (save whites for another use).
-
Crack each egg* into a separate medium microwave-safe bowl. Gently pierce yolks with a fork, then stir once (yolks will be broken, but not fully incorporated). Divide spinach, scallion greens, and cheddar between bowls and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Microwave until eggs are cooked through, 2½-3½ minutes. Uncover bowls and top with feta; set aside until ready to serve. (For 4 servings, work in batches; transfer cooked eggs to a plate and top with feta, then reuse bowls.) TIP: We were able to fit two bowls in the microwave at the same time. Check eggs after 2½ minutes; if needed, continue to microwave in 30-second intervals until done.
- While eggs cook, halve and toast buns.
-
In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise with as much hot sauce as you like.
-
Spread cut sides of buns with spicy mayo. Fill buns with spinach, feta, and cheddar eggs.
-
Divide sandwiches between plates and serve.

Review summary
Updated on Dec 2025- Flavor: Many loved the taste, especially with the spicy mayo. Some found it heavy on spinach or cheddar; adjust to preference.
- Ease of prep: Quick and easy for most, though some preferred stovetop or oven methods over microwaving the eggs 🍳.
- Suggestions: Consider frying or baking eggs instead of microwaving. Add bacon or sweet potatoes on the side for a heartier meal.
- Portions: A few found one egg made for a thin sandwich; try using two eggs per serving for a more substantial filling.
- Bread: Some felt brioche buns were too sweet; experiment with flatter bread options for easier eating and better savory balance.
Reviews from our home cooks
Delicious! I opted to cook this a little differently from the recipe since I'm leery about cooking eggs in the microwave. I put the eggs, onion, spinach and cheddar together in oven safe dishes (well buttered) and baked them for about 15 minutes at 400 f. They came out well. I also buttered and toasted the buns in the oven and made some bacon to go with the sandwich. The flavor of everything was great! The hot sauce mayo was perfect with this. I think I'll have to add hot sauce and feta the next time I make a spinach quiche.
These are great! Easliy modifiable recipe, nice amount of protein and generous amounts of spinach--all pluses. One thing I might change is that the brioche buns are quite sweet--lovely texture and all, but kind of an imperfect fit with the savory breakfast. Still DELICIOUS, just strangely sweet. I bet they are perfect for some people, and would be for me in a different recipe. THANK YOU!
This was new to us and we loved it. Plus I loved how easy it was to put together after a long day at work! My only complaint was that as a meal it felt incomplete? I think I might add a salad or cut up some sweet potatoes to go with it next time.
I cut all the stems off my spinach so the texture came out perfect, the eggs and spinach work well together.
This is a favorite I will make again. I used plain mayo, not the spicy packet, and liked it very much.
Absolutely delicious BUT whoever said that the egg should cook 2.5-3.5 mins in the microwave is absolutely absurd. This cooked in 40 seconds.
Excellent! I ended up frying the egg mixture instead of microwaving it. I preferred that
With such round bread, it was difficult to eat without making a sticky mess because the filling would be pressed out almost completely. Maybe something flatter for the bread next time? They were delicious, though!
I would suggest refining the instruction for the egg. I put it in completely sealed and after about a minute and a half it exploded out the top (not the sides of the wrap but through the wrap) and made a colossal mess and wasn't finished cooking. This was on a 900W microwave. There's no instruction on power level so I assume it means high. But egg in microwave over 90 seconds is not good. The sandwiches are delicious. I just think the instructions and process need a bit of improvement.
It wasn't as flavorful as I'd hoped but that's ok....I'll know next time I get it to add more/different seasoning to it. It was super easy and fast!
