Let's talk Breakfast

I eat the SAME breakfast every day with the exception of putting either 1 cup of blueberries or blackberries in my oatmeal on some mornings. As for the eggs they almost never change. I eat 6-7 egg whites cooked in the shape on omelett with cinnamon and splenda sprinkled on it.

I start with regular eggs and seperate them myself b/c it is cheaper than buying the egg whites in a carton although I have done that in the past this is way more cost effective.


Here is my splenda in the red canister and my cinnamon.
I spray the skillet with olive oil spray or butter flavored spray and I actually turn the skillet on to medium heat at #6 and I crack and seperate the egg whites directly into the skillet (just keeps me from dirtying up another bowl. I do put the yolks in a small bowl then put them down the sink.

I just let the egg mixture sit until it sets up and then I flip half of it over like you see in the picture below. Then I sprinkle a tad more splenda and cinnamon on that side.

Then I flip to the other side and sprinkle again and cut it in half to make sure it is cooked all the way through (I don't like runny egg whites but I do like runny yolks like a sunny side egg...go figure). Then I put it in a tupperware container and put it in the fridge and I heat it up in the microvave the next morning at work for about 45 seconds. I make it at night almost always to save time in the morning.

Here is my 1/2 cup of dry oatmeal made with 1 cup of water and splenda and cinnamon and cooked in the microwae for about 3 minutes. YUM!!!!

Also, with the eggs you could also scramble the egg whites and still use the splenda and cinnamon. I choose the omelett way b/c I can let it sit and cook while I am prepping other foods for my breakfast. If you scramble you have to take time to stir it more often.

I am a creature of habit. I have had this exact same breakfast 98% of the time for the last 9 months. I never seem to get tired of it.

There are so many other ideas like:

1) egg/veggie omelet and a fruit

2) english muffin with peanut butter and a fruit

3) greek yogurt, fruit

4) toast, eggs, fruit

5) waffle, eggs, fruit

6) protein shake and oatmeal

A good balanced breakfast in my opinion has protein and some healthy carb in the form of veggies, fruit or a grain.
