    Granola or muesli with Greek yogurt, porridge with raisins, bagel and peanut butter and bacon and scrambled eggs are just some of my favourites!

    Sausage and Cheese Breakfast Cups (South Beach Diet Cook Book)

    4 oz turkey sausage or crumbled turkey bacon
    1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
    1/4 onion, chopped
    5 large eggs
    1 can (12 oz) sliced mushrooms, drained
    1/2 C (2 oz) shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese

    Preheat oven to 350F. Coat a 6-cup nonstick muffin pan with cooking spray or line with paper baking cups.

    In a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, cook the sausage, pepper and onion for 5 minutes, or until the sausage is no longer pink. Spoon the mixture into a bowl and cool slightly. Stir in the eggs and mushrooms, Evenly divide the mixture among the prepared muffin cups. Sprinkle with the cheese.

    Bake for 20 minutes or until the egg is set.

    Makes 6 cups

    Nutritional value
    per serving: 140 calories, 9g fat, 3 g saturated fat, 12 g protein, 4 g carbohydrate, 1 g dietary fiber, 195 mg cholesterol, 400 mg sodium

    MY NOTES: I make these on Sunday and just reheat in the microwave for a quick breakfast before work. I also am watching my cholesterol so I use Eggbeaters instead of whole eggs. And lastly, I use part skim mozzarella since I don't really like cheddar.

    Hope you like them as much as I do.

    Oooh, those sound good. Do you mix up the egg separately and then mixed the already cooked stuff right before spooning into the cups?

    You can if you want, but I just added the eggs and mixed it all up together. Just make sure the sausage stuff is not real hot so it doesn't "cook" the eggs.

    I've tried many of her recipes. She actually had one for a natural cough syrup with honey that worked better than what I bought at the pharmacy. With the crock-pot oats, the apple is my favorite, followed closely by cherry-almond

    Bump! thanks
  • I just discovered banana pancakes which are super good and healthy and quick to make.

    Smash one or two bananas, add an egg and a bit cinnamon if you want. Then cook some pancakes :) i know it seems more like a "banana omelette" but you better try before you judge....

  • I soak a 1/2 cup of oats overnight in 1 cup of vanilla unsweetened almond milk. I mix in 1 tablespoon of peanut or almond butter and add a teaspoon of honey.

    Pull out the next morning. It keeps the nutrients in the oats that cooking can damage and it is saves time in the morning.

    Gourmet Nut - Dry Roasted Edamame, 1 oz (30g)
    Syntrax Nectar - Whey Protein Isolate Fruit Juice Flavor - Caribbean Cooler, 1 scoop

    Kashi - Go Lean Crunch - Honey Almond Flax, 0.5 cup
