Breakfast ideas

Here are some of our main breakfast ideas we use regularly:

Egg wraps:

1/2 cup egg whites (egg beaters)
1 slice fat free cheese
2 tortillas
Salt, pepper, red pepper flakes

Cook eggs in small pan and flip when mostly finished. Spice to taste and then divide in half. Put each onto a tortilla and top with half the cheese slice. Enjoy with some juice or a piece of fruit. Alternately, I sometimes eat mine on low calorie bread, and Mike will enjoy an egg sammie on our gluten free bread found at Whole Foods.

Yogurt parfaits:

1/2 cup of fat free, plain European style yogurt
Desired amount of fruit (I use about 1.5 cups) Choose from banana, any kind of berries, peaches, nectarines, apples, grapes, plums, etc. Virtually any kind works well.
1 Tbsp of gluten free granola or other cereal for crunch

Egg scramble

1/2 cup of egg whites (or eggbeaters)
Any amount of veggies desired (I typically use whatever we have for leftovers - or a frozen mix of peppers and onions)
Turkey sausage leftovers or whatever meat I have handy
Low fat cheddar cheese

Pretty much just take whatever you have in your fridge that looks tasty and mix it up with some eggs and cheese. Add some ketchup and you are good to go.

French toast

1/2 cup of egg whites (or eggbeaters)
Tbsp of fat free milk
2 slices of gluten free bread (or regular if you don't mind gluten)
cinnamon
sugar or sugar alternative
tiny pinch of salt
tiny pinch of nutmeg
Fruit sliced for topping

Combine all the ingredients besides bread and mix. Add toast one at a time and coat both sides with egg mixture. Cook in a hot pan sprayed with Pam. Cover with chopped fruit or some low calorie syrup.
