Hi all! Thought I'd share my go-to recipe for breakfast: breakfast pockets. My boyfriend and I make a batch or two (16/batch) every week or so and freeze them, then every morning we pop two in the oven frozen at 350º while we're getting ready and they're ready to take out the door with us!

I started with this recipe from Budget Gourmet mom: http://www.budgetgourmetmom.com/breakfast-pockets/

For the dough, instead of oil, I use unsweetened apple sauce and I've swapped up to half the flour for whole wheat flour too.
For the filling, we use egg beaters, spray olive oil and any veggies we happen to have on hand (with spinach, mushrooms, and peppers being the favorites!). Without an extra meat, they come in at around 200 calories/pocket and, this week's with Turkey ham is 236/pocket.

Mine weren't very pretty the first time, but they've always been delicious and they're fun to experiment with. Plus, the mix of fiber, protein, and carbs keeps me full till lunch! :)
