My usual breakfast is pretty boring, but it does the job ~ especially on a work day. My health shake and a couple of hard boiled eggs, sometimes some cut up veggies. But when I'm home and I've slept in...you know, basically been a little lazy and indulged in extra bed time...I like to cook a proper breakfast. And this one didn't fail to deliver on flavor, satiety, and overall nutrition.
I use cast iron; I do put a little olive oil or butter in the pan once it's warm but I'm careful to wipe out any excess to limit the fat. One whole farm-fresh egg and two egg whites to start. Dill weed on the egg, with salt and pepper to taste. A handful of baby spinach, a few grape tomatoes, and a small amount of goat's cheese. Meanwhile I defrosted and toasted an Ezekiel multigrain English muffin. They are super dense and filling, and can hold up a heavy sandwich versus some of the "wimpier" English muffins I've tried. Assemble, get a couple of napkins and a fork for whatever doesn't fit on the muffin ~ and ENJOY! 410 calories, 17 grams fat, 29 grams protein. And no hunger whatsoever for 4+ hours :D
