Spinach Protein Pancakes (5 ppv):

Sometimes it's hard to fit in a nice breakfast in the morning, especially one that will keep you full until your next break, which is usually lunch time (or later). Here are some quick ways to have an exciting and filling breakfast!

  Once you have made the batter, throw it in the food processor with 1 cup of fresh spinach and grind until spinach is fully blended. Cook like pancakes! Take 5 ounces of fat free greek yogurt (I like vanilla). Mix in 1 tsp chia seeds (optional) and cinnamon (optional). Top pancakes with yogurt and enjoy! This recipe packs over 30 g of protein!

 

French Toast with Bacon and Spinach and Egg White Omelette (4 ppv):

I've been obsessed with french toast lately. If I know that I am having mine with one of my omelettes, I measure out all my egg whites at once. Measure 1/2 cup of liquid egg whites in a bowl. Dip in two slices of bread (1 ppv each). Sprinkle cinnamon on each slice of bread and cook for a few minutes on each side in a pan, meanwhile cook two slices of center cut bacon in the pan also (they should take about the same time). In another pan start your omelette by adding 1 cup of fresh spinach. When spinach is cooked, add the rest of the egg whites from before. Cover the pan and flip when egg whites have cooked to brown both sides. Enjoy!

Avocado Toast topped with Salsa Egg White Omelette (4 ppv):

I love love love avocado, but sometimes have a hard time fitting it into my diet. Breakfast was the perfect place! I took 1 slice of bread (1 ppv) and spread 1/4 of an avocado on top (and a little bit of sea salt which is optional). Meanwhile, measure 1/2 cup of liquid egg whites and mix in 1/4 cup of any fat free salsa. Cook egg white mixture in a pan and top on avocado toast! Awesome way to do mexican in the morning!
