Okay, before you let your jaw drop, I have to tell you that I eat "this much" ONLY after an intense 1-hour workout session. I come back from the gym with a dinosaur-like appetite that only subsides after I eat "this much". So my post-workout breakfast consists of
While everyone knows how to whip up an egg omelet, I will show my version anyway. I prefer mine soft, fluffy and barely set.Runny, jiggly eggs are not my style but my hubby assures me they are heavenly.Well, I don't know about that but I am working on getting over the aversion to jiggly eggs..
Ingredients:
- Fluffy omelet and cheese on a whole-wheat burger bun with POM/Orange juice to flush it down
- A handful of Special K "red berries" cereal, sliced banana in a cup of warm skimmed milk
- A mug of steaming plain green tea.

Ingredients:
- 2 Egg Whites
- 1 Egg Yolk
- 1 Slice Yellow or White "Cheddar" Singles
- 1 Tbsp Skimmed Milk
- 1 Tsp Melted Butter
- 1 Tsp Olive Oil
- A few Grinds of Cracked Pepper
- Salt as needed
- 1 Whole-Wheat Burger Bun
- Add the Olive Oil and butter to the pan and give it a swirl.
- Whisk the egg whites and egg yolk along with milk, salt and pepper.
- Pour the egg-milk mixture into the pan and reduce the flame to low. Keep stirring the egg mixture in circles.
- Once the egg mixture starts thickening let it cook "undisturbed" for a minute or so.
- Pull the spatula inwards and tilt the pan slightly so the runny portions flow over and cook for a minute.
- Once the omelet is not jiggly, fold and add the cheese single.
- Transfer the egg right-away to the bottom portion of the burger and top it with tomato slices.
- Top it with the remaining portion of the bun and enjoy it warm with Orange Juice or POM Juice.
- Enjoy!
- The second portion of my breakfast-

ReplyDeletewow u come back home after a workout, make all this and then eat? i would just die if i had 2 make somethin after a heavy work out session, so instead i take an apple or banana or pear with me and on my way back munch on it..so that i dont have the urge 2 have all tht junk when i get home and gain the cals tht i painstakingly lost. I love the eggs in a burger form idea..
