Shannan’s Journey

Hi guys and gals…

I have some good for ya foods again… recipes that will help you attain your goals   These are great because you can eat them morning, noon, and night and you can take them on the go in a tupperware container.

Everyone eats eggs when dieting and even when we are not dieting, but we all get bored of them because well, they are just sort of a taste-less item on the breakfast menu, and unless you get somewhat creative with them they will always just be bland eggs. 

Here are a couple things to try and you can also make extra and keep it in the fridge for later or the next day.

Egg White Frittatas:

1 1/2 c. broccoli florets

1/2 c scallion

1/2 c tomatos, any kind you like, chopped (preferably seeded and drained)

1/2 red and yellow peppers

Nonstick cooking spray, like Pam

5 egg whites

1/2 teaspoon cilantro or basil, chopped

1 garlic clove, minced

salt & pepper to taste

** Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Saute all chopped veggies in a pan with the cooking spray. Spray a deep glass pie plate with cooking spray. Next place all veggies in the pie plate.  In a mixing bowl mix together herbs, garlic and egg whites. Pour over the veggies in pie plate and bake in oven for about 20 minutes or until eggs are set.  Remove and cut into wedges and serve, hot or cold.

Egg White Bites:

6-12 egg whites only, no yolks

2-3 plum tomatos or any kind you like, chopped, seeded and drained

** you may add 1/2 c. spinach, 1/2 onion chopped, or even mushrooms for variety

dried basil

cooking spray

** Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a muffin tin with cooking spray. Drop an egg white or two into each of the wells of the muffin tin. Toss a little of each veggie you want on top of the eggs in each well. Place in oven center rack and bake for 6-9 minutes or until desired doneness.  Serve it up!!!
