    I love all the ideas I was just thinking of way to change up my breakfast because I am tired of eating the same boring shredded wheat 1 serving with 1/2 cup of skim milk! I seen some protein powder on a clearance shelf in a local drug store was thinking about getting it next time I go there if someone else has not bought it yet.

    Frittata, it's all about the cooking. For both quiche and frittata, use any vegetables on hand.

    Here's a crustless quiche, here called a mini-omelet.

    I have a basic recipe and just switch up my ingredients.

    Cook 4 slices of chopped center cut bacon until crispy, remove and keep the bacon fat. Add your veggies and cook until soft. A lot of veggies - I add around 8-10oz of veggies depending on what mixture I want. Remove from heat. Beat 4 eggs, 4 egg whites (3/4 cup liquid egg whites), 1/4 cup skim milk and salt and pepper. Add all of your veggies, egg mixture, and bacon to a parchment lined cake pan, add raw tomatoes and/or scallion and bake at 400 for about 20 mins (sometimes a little over) until set. I love the bacon in it, but have made it with soyrizo, apple chicken sausage, turkey sausage, etc. My absolute favorites are:
    bacon, mushroom, kale, scallion, tomato
    bacon, cabbage, scallion
    bacon, spinach, tomato

    They come out to between 140-150 for 1/4 of the pan. I cut it into quarters, then keep it in the fridge still in the pan. In the morning, I take out 1/4, slice that in half and microwave it for 2 minutes.

    Must try frittata, some great ideas on here. I love egg whites whipped with sliced or chopped red, yellow and orange peppers on top. Use tsp olive oil in a frying pan, add the whipped egg whites and top with peppers. Once the underneath is cooked put under the grill to brown slightly.
