    I've been on a huge egg white muffin kick lately. Today's combo was egg whites (obviously), Gardein Veggie Crumbles, red pepper, red onion & low fat cheddar cheese.
    They are perfect for breakfast or lunch and pack up easily.

    Marinated chopped chicken breast on a salad with cherry tomatoes and mozzarella. This is enough for at least 3 days.

    Pumpkin pie protein smoothie - 1 cup fairlife milk, 1 scoop vanilla protein powder, 1/2 cup canned protein, pumpkin pie spice and stevia to taste. Yum, but really thick. I might do less pumpkin and more spice next time. I needed the stevia to sweeten it to give it a "pumpkin pie" taste.

    Egg bake (recipe from one of my Post-Op education classes)

    22359060280_1399647bb6_h.jpg2015-10-28_11-27-37 by Tony Driver, on Flickr

    3 Sweet Italian Turkey Sausages (skin removed)
    1/3 onion
    1 clove garlic
    6oz fresh mushrooms
    120z roasted red pepper drained and patted dry
    1.5 c broccoli flourettes chopped
    1.75c skim cheese ( I used Mozzarella)
    2 tbsp grated parmesan
    pepper to taste
    8 eggs
    4 egg whites
    .25c Milk

    Preheat oven to 375. Remove skin and brown sausage meat, drain if you want, and set aside. Sautee onions, garlic, for 5-7 minutes. Add in broccoli, drained and patted dry roasted peppers, and meat. Heat through for about 2 minutes. Spray a 9x13 casserole dish and line the bottom with 1/2 of Mozzarella. Add in the meat veggies and spread evenly. In a big bowl, mix up the eggs, egg whites, Parmesan, milk, and pepper. Add egg mixture to caserole. Top with remainder of cheese. Bake 20-35 minutes, until knife or toothpick come out clean. Makes 15 "bariatric servings". I froze it in 3-meal blocks, and kept out a week's worth. Best reheated in a toaster oven, so that it does not get soggy.

    Any veggies in this can be substituted, as well as the cheese type, so you can create a bunch of combinations.

    That looks sooooo yummy! I use a similar recipe, and I bake it in muffin tins to make them easier to grab and go. I love recipes like this that you can change up by changing the veggies/protein, too!

    Might be able to drop the fat by using different cheese/using less cheese (the Cabot Extra light is fantastic) and finding chicken sausage. You could also drain/rinse the cooked meat, if you really want to be hardcore. I bet this would come out pretty fantastic with the MorningStar Farms Veggie Breakfast crumbles.

    I use the Trader Joe's reduced fat mozzarella, it's only 45 cal/oz and it melts really well and tastes good. I have also used turkey bacon and chicken sausage for the meat, and artichoke hearts or asparagus for the vegetable in it. Now you have me wanting to try the breakfast crumbles in it! I will have to try that and report back :-)

    My son REALLY wanted to go to Red Robin for dinner.... No problem.... I asked for the kids menu and ordered the grilled chicken stickens..with steamed broccoli. I only was able to finish 2 of the pieces of chicken.

    That looks good though! I've only had one place that wouldn't let me order off of the kids menu, but that is usually what I do too!

    I have mixed feelings on how this turned out. I'd probably do it again but minus the cheese and using pico de gallo instead of salsa or with just the cheese and no pico or salsa. The flavors just didn't blend right. Anyway, it's a veggie burger with egg, cheese and salsa.

    Ooh hell if you can find the pumpkin pie quest bars, and like that flavor give them a try. I'm not normally a pumpkin spice person, but it was recommended to me by a few people. I tried one and it is the best bar they have out. The texture is fantastic, there are little crunchy crumble pieces on top that were great. it's not too sweet or spiced either.
