    Get a non-stick muffin tin that has 12 cups.
    6 whole eggs
    6 egg whites (or whatever proportion of eggs/egg whites you want)
    Mix them up

    Find some "filling" that you like, whether sauteed veg (spinach and mushroom is good), or chopped up meat (like lunchmeat), or cheese, or a combo of them.

    Spray the muffin tin with oil. Put some filing in each cup, say a quarter or a third of the way.

    ladle the egg mixture into the cups.

    Bake on 175C for about 15-20 minutes, until cooked.

    I tend to also add some garlic paste, hot sauce, salt and pepper into my egg mixture.

    You can then freeze them and take out and microwave for a quick low cal snack.
  • For breakfast:

    Frozen waffles (I prefer blueberry Eggo's) with 2 tablespoons of peanut butter spread over them. It comes to a total of 370 calories, has 11 grams of protein and 3 grams of fiber. I also like to add a sliced banana for added fiber if I need a little something extra to hold me over until lunch. :wink:

    Greek Yogurt Pancakes

    Ingredients:
    6 ounces of greek yogurt (I used Chobani non-fat plain)
    1 egg white
    1 tsp baking soda
    1/2 cup of flour

    Directions:
    Mix the yogurt and egg white in a bowl. In a separate bowl, mix the flour and baking soda. Combine all ingredients together and cook like you would regular pancakes. I added blackberries to mine :) Delicious! Flip them when they start bubbling on each side.

    Makes about 3 medium pancakes!
