Scrambled Egg Whites & Turkey

We all know that breakfast is something you can't skip. I've skipped breakfast for YEARS and it finally caught up with me while coming into my wonderful 30's. Now that I'm eating a healthy breakfast I can easily maintain my weight. Something even your kiddos (if you have any) can whip up is this EASY breakfast. Don't forget, feeding your children healthy food instead of cereal or pop tarts every morning will be extremely beneficial too.

Egg whites are high in protein, which means you'll feel full faster and longer. Whole eggs are healthy too, the egg yolk has good fats. However, if you're trying to lose body fat you should watch your fats closely. Normally, cutting fat is needed because natural fats are found in a lot of foods. Turkey is low fat/low cal. and high in protein. The smoked turkey is a GREAT substitute for greasy bacon. Remember, about 40% protein, 40% good carbs, 20% fats.



I lightly sprayed the frying pan with olive oil then diced up some sliced turkey into the egg whites. SIMPLE for those busy mornings.

3-4 egg whites
6 slices of deli fresh smoked turkey
ROUGHLY 100 CALORIES!

Food tip: Buy ready to make egg whites from your local grocer.
