ok I really do hate eggs, I have to have it scrambled in with other veggies before I can eat it. What I did today I hope will turn out great.

I cut up 2 large onions, 2 large green peppers and a package of bacon.

First I slice the bacon into small pieces while it's still in the package, that makes it easier to cut, oh and don't try using a serrated knife for this, it will shred the bacon.
cook the bacon until it's the way you like it (I like mine very crisp) drain the fat from the pan leaving one to 2 tablespoons of the oil, remove the bacon from the pan
cook the onion and green pepper in the reserved bacon grease until it is of the texture you like (I like mine very soft, almost caramelized)
add the bacon and combine thoroughly.

now separate the mixture into sandwich baggies, I did mine with 1/2 cup of mixture in each, it came out to 8 bags. smooth the mixture in the bags so that they are flat, close and put in the freezer. I believe that making it flat will make it quicker to defrost when you want it. when you want eggs, just defrost the mixture, add an egg or 2 and you have a yummy breakfast.

mine ended up 178 calories and 233 sodium

you can substitute the ingredients for what you like in your scramble. I'm am actually currently trying to make some hominy from dry so that I can add that, I love hominy in my scrambles. I will also be looking for lower sodium bacon.

    Great recipe, thanks Chef. I was about to fuss about the cholesterol, and you gave us something with the egg beaters that might actually taste good. Well done sir, and congrats on what you've accomplished.
