We usually workout in the mornings, therefore, we have our high energy carbs (see Eat Better and Move Better) for breakfast. We also eat a lot of eggs because we love them. We buy organic, cage-free brown eggs. We also use cage-free egg whites. One meal we like for breakfast is an egg sandwich. A lot of times we put so much on it that we have to make it an open-faced sandwich!
Ingredients
- one egg
- 6 tbsp egg whites
- cheese if you wish
- turkey sausage or extra protein of your choice
- one slice bread/muffin of your choice
- 1/2 avocado
Recipe and Preparation
- Spray pan with olive oil spray
- Pan fry one egg (break the yolk) with egg whites
- Flip it over and if you like cheese then melt cheese on it. (We buy vegan cheese slices or we make our own vegan cheese)
- Make homemade turkey sausage and fry it up in a separate pan. Or add another protein if you choose. If you are going to use lunchmeat, try to use Boar’s Head. If you need help with other proteins here, let us know.
- If you have worked out and are in your “window” then you can add bread or toast to your meal. We like Ezekiel bread or muffins.
- Additions can be avocado on top of your sandwich or avocado butter on your toast. You can also add tomato slices.
- Once they are all done to your liking pile them up and eat them!
We usually just search the internet using Ecosia for recipes as I need them then adapt to what I have in my cupboard. I used the recipe above from Simply Scratch for the turkey sausage. I substituted ginger for sage but it worked for me. There are many variations out there.
