Breakfast Quesadilla

I recently joined weight watchers as a way to check that my meals are balanced and healthy. It has also provided me with a great new resource for recipes! On my quest to continue eating high protein breakfasts' I created this really simple breakfast burrito.

Ingredients:
small quesadilla shell
1/2 cup fat free cheese
1 slice turkey bacon
egg whites

Directions:
1. Spread your ingredients on half the quesadilla shell.
2. Fold shell over ingredients and grill. I use my panini press but you can also just use a frying pan which works very well to make the outside crispy and melt the cheese. This is such a super easy breakfast and delicious as well. When I am running low on time I even leave out the egg whites and it still keeps me filled up!

A Healthy Start

I must make a healthy eating confession....I do not eat healthy breakfasts! Now I do eat breakfast but this usually consists of a bowl of Special K which doesn't usually last me through the morning. So I will now try to eat atleast 3 protein filled breakfasts every week. My new breakfast this week is below:

Morning Star Farms Veggie Sausage Pattie on a Thomas' Triple Health English Muffins

The veggie pattie only has 80 calories but 10 grams on protein!


And the English Muffin only has 100 calories and 5 grams of protein!


So my total breakfast is 150 calories and 15 grams of protein. Hopefully that will help fuel my body after my morning workouts and keep me full until lunch. I am also trying to drink a lot more water at work. Hopefully with the help of a little crystal light I will be able to drink atleast 32 ounces a day. Here is to a healthier morning! If anyone else has some low calorie high protein brekfast options please let me know!
