Egg, Pesto & Mozzarella Sandwich

The Egg, Pesto & Mozzarella Sandwich is a fresh, Mediterranean-inspired breakfast option that brings bold, herbaceous flavors to your morning routine—perfect as a tasty vegetarian alternative to classic egg sandwiches.
It features a fluffy, cage-free egg frittata blended with kale for extra nutrition and texture, layered with vibrant basil-kale pesto and topped with melted low-moisture part-skim mozzarella for that irresistible cheesy pull. Everything is nestled in a toasted Cheddar and onion bun (a savory, slightly bready twist with cheesy notes and subtle onion flavor).
Packing 21g of protein and around 390 calories, it’s a satisfying, high-protein choice that’s meat-free yet full of rich, savory depth—ideal for anyone craving something flavorful and filling without the bacon. A go-to for pesto lovers looking for a step up from the usual breakfast sandwich!

Frequently Asked Questions – Egg, Pesto & Mozzarella Sandwich

Yes! It’s a lacto-ovo vegetarian option—made with eggs and dairy (like mozzarella and other cheeses), but no meat or meat by-products. Official ingredients list microbial enzymes (vegetarian-friendly) in the cheeses, so no animal rennet is used. Perfect for vegetarians looking for a hearty, meat-free breakfast!

It’s served on a toasted Cheddar and onion bialy (a soft, flavorful roll similar to ciabatta). The bun has white cheddar cheese and onions baked right in, giving it a savory, cheesy crust with subtle onion notes that pairs amazingly with the pesto and egg.

Starbucks’ kale pesto is nut-free! It’s a blend of kale, basil, parsley, garlic, lemon juice, and vegetable oils (canola and olive)—no pine nuts or other tree nuts listed in the official ingredients. That said, always double-check the label in-store or on the Starbucks app/website, as cross-contamination is possible due to shared equipment.

Since it’s pre-assembled and warmed to order, you can’t remove or swap core ingredients (like the kale in the frittata or the pesto spread). But you can easily add extras like Sriracha, avocado spread, or other available toppings for a personalized kick!

Definitely— it packs 21g of protein per serving (around 390 calories total), making it one of the top high-protein vegetarian picks on the Starbucks breakfast menu. Great fuel for busy mornings!

It’s heated in a high-speed oven right at the store, which toasts the bun perfectly and melts the mozzarella into that gooey, irresistible layer while keeping everything hot and fresh.
