Chicken Sausage and Bell Pepper Omlete

I have to be honest and admit that breakfast is by far my most favorite meal of the day, especially on weekends! Weekends are the days we cheat... well according to us were cheating. My husband is the scrambled egg and omelet master while I make the pancakes! This time we had to try out our new Trader Joe's chicken sausage....

Ingredients:

1/2 c Egg Whites
1 Whole Egg
1 TJ's Chicken Sausage
1/4 c Red Bell Peppers
1/4 c Green Bell Peppers

Mexican Spices: (a couple dashes of each)

Onion Powder

Garlic Powder

Chili Powder

Cumin 

Pepper
Habenero Jack Cheese

Makes 2 Omelets

Dice up the sausage and peppers and set on the griddle. cook for apx 5 minutes.
In a small bowl beat together 1 whole egg, egg whites and spices. 

  

On the other side of the griddle pour the 1/2 of the egg mixture, sllloooowly so it doesn't run all over the pan. Add your cheese and when the egg is mostly cooked add sausage and veggies! Fold over in to a beautiful omelet! Then devour!!

ENJOY!!

Protein Oatmeal

I was thinking that I probably should share my routine, daily, can't live without breakfast! Oatmeal! But this is not just any old plain oatmeal, this is flavorful yet sugar free healthy oatmeal!

I usually mix my oatmeal in advance and store in an airtight container. This makes mornings a lot quicker, and I use a protein scoop to measure my serving. 

But I'll show you how to make an individual bowl in case you don't have enough ingredients or the space to mix in advance.

1/4 Cup Oatmeal (either quick oats or whole oats)
1/8 Cup Vanilla whey protein powder
1/8 Cup Oat Bran
1 Tsp ground Flax seed

Then I cover all Ingredients with half water and half coconut milk, unsweetened of course. You could also use almond milk if you'd like. I stick it all in the microwave for 1:30 minutes, sure it and let it rest for about a minute then I microwave it again for 30 seconds.

it really does depend how you like your oatmeal, I like my oatmeal very cooked and mushy. 

Finally I top up with some cinnamon or PB2 mix and enjoy!!

Love, Tabitha

Protein Pancakes

There are a lot of different protein pancake recipes out there but all of them were missing something... I read though a bunch of them and.... AH HA!
Coconut flour! it makes all the difference. There is something special about coconut and NO, its not that because I'm from Hawai'i and I LOVE coconut either... It some how magically has a tenancy to sweeten recipes but without the sugar. Its decadent, I LOVE it and bake with coconut flour all the time! :) HAPPY HAPPY ME! If you love it just as much as I do can I recommend a great site that has it CHEAP, ORGANIC, and in BULK! HERE!
Hopefully this make you as excited as I am about CHEAP COCONUT!!!
