Mine is 'Breakfast eggs' which I invented after trying the mexican Huevos Rancheros which is eggs in a spicy tomato sauce and tortilla wrap. Preferring my spice in the evening I came up with a more subtle taste:

Ingredients

1 medium egg
1 reduced fat sausage
A tin of chopped tomatoes
A couple of mushrooms
Dried mixed herbs

Method

Place the tinned toms and herbs in a small pan. Slice your mushroom and heat with the toms. When the toms are simmering, chop your sausage into smallish slices and add to the toms. If you have a frozen sausage, add it whole then take it out and slice once it has thawed. After about 5-10mins, make a well in the sauce and crack your egg into the pan. Make sure your sauce is not bubbling too much or you will get veins of egg everywhere - although this doesn't affect the taste, it doesn't look appealing. Give the egg 5-10mins depending on whether you want it soft or hard boiled.

Serve! Calories - around 150-200kcal depending on what sort of sausage you use! Serve with a piece of bread or toast if you have the allowance :)

P.s. I'm not a vegan anymore!

    Sunday is Omelet day for us! (I dont want to be attacked by the Sodium police so please dont comment)

    This morning I sauteed some zucchini, eggplant, baby portabella mushrooms, orange bell pepper, fresh garlic, sea salt and pepper..

    Sauteed up some Eye-round bite-sized pieces with sea salt and black pepper...

    My husband's omelet is a 3-egg with provolone and then the filling
    My omelet is a 2-egg with 1oz fresh crumbled gorgonzola and then the filling..

    My favorite is a breakfast sandwich. I cook 1/4 cup Egg Beaters into a little omelet shape and sprinkle on 1/8 cup of reduced-fat cheddar cheese. Then I warm up 2 oz. of roasted turkey (deli slices) and put it all on a 100-calorie Sandwich Thin. I like to put spicy brown mustard on mine. The whole thing is about 230 calories and is very satisfying!

    My BBF has recipe for muligrain waffles that come out beautifully and have such a delicious, chewy texture:

    1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats soaked 15 min in 2 C buttermilk
    Add to that, 2/3 C each whole wheat flour and regular AP flour
    2Thbsp wheat germ
    11/2 tsp baking powder
    1tsp baking soda
    1/4 tsp salt
    2 eggs
    1/4 C brown sugar
    1tsp vanilla ext
    1thbsp canola oil

    mix lightly, kinda like muffin batter...it is a very thick batter

    even my husband likes these, and he's not a big waffle or pancake fan, he says these "stick to your ribs".

    Don't know the calories offhand...I'll look them up and repost ASAP.

    I have a nice hot cup of coffee first thing in the morning, with my 'first breakfast' as the hobbits say, a little tasty home made healthy chocolate chip cookie. I'm always making up new recipes so the calories change, but between 50 & 75 calories, with whey protein, dark chocolate bits, no butter, little coconut oil, egg whites, golden flax meal, vanilla and I try different flours. Going to try sprouted grain flour next. I keep a batch in the freezer at all times...yummy!

    On naughty days its french toast (white bread) with one egg + one white with maple syrup. Plus white coffee 2 sugar. MY FAVOURITE. Sometimes even tinned spagetti.

    On normal days its wholemeal toast with peanut butter, protein shake and coffee white with sweetener. Every once in a while its eggs.

    During the colder Months it's been oatmeal with a little brown sugar. Most other times it's 1 slice of multigrain toast with 2 poached eggs and a slice of ham. Runny yolks of course..

    so yummy

    Wholemeal bread, peanut butter and banana, with a small satsuma and tea with milk and one sweetener.
    Either that or a good plate of egg on toast, neither can go a miss. ;D
