Breakfast and Dinner Idea
Cheddar Jalapeno Turkey Burgers
1lb Lean Ground Turkey
1/2 purple onion
1 jalapeno diced
1/2c graded cheddar cheese
1/4c egg whites
garlic pepper
sea salt
Crunchy Kale ( chris and I fight over who gets more!)
1 lb kale washed and cut with knife or scissors
I spray olive oil on it and then add a little finely graded fresh parmesian cheese
then cook at 400 for about 10-12 minutes or until crispy
Quinoa - this is a great alternative for rice high in protein and no sugar ..or I even use it instead of oatmeal too with pb of course!! follow package
mexican style omelet
egg whites- 3 or 4 per person
1 clove garlic
1/4 purple onion
jalepeno diced
salt and pepper
I spray the pan with extra virgin olive oil then add onions, garlic and pepper first then egg whites. We ate ours with yellow corn tortillas. You can add cheese too, but I tend to steer away from cheese and milk ( my tummy hates it)
Guacamole
avocado mushed up
diced tomato (small one)
4T diced purple onion
1-2 tsp lemon juice
garlic pepper

I paired this with mashed sweet potatoes ( because they are way better then your idaho guys!) cut and boil them and leave the skins on for the extra vitamins!! I like to add a little milk butter and brown sugar when mashing them
