Calories: The most important meal of the day is also the one most frequently skipped. But did you know eating a healthy, well-balanced breakfast helps you to maintain energy levels throughout the day, revs up your metabolism, and minimizes your likelihood of overindulging later? In fact, eating within two hours of waking up can affect the way you metabolize glucose all day.
1. Egg White Frittata
There’s really nothing healthier — or more delicious — than a classic frittata. This breakfast and brunch mainstay can be packed with nutritious vegetables, and the high-protein content of the eggs will keep you feeling sated until lunchtime.
For easier weekday mornings, prep a large batch on the weekend, and portion it out for week ahead. Top it off with fresh salsa or a dash of hot sauce before serving for an extra kick.
2. Baked Egg Cups
These cute little egg muffins are actually a super nutritious, low carb, high protein start to your morning. Make a big batch in a muffin tin, and grab one as you’re running out the door. Once you get to work, simply reheat in the microwave for 10 to 15 seconds.
To make, mix together six large eggs and your choice of toppings in a bowl with salt and pepper to taste. Some good suggestions include chopped peppers, sausage, chopped bacon, spinach, onions, and shredded cheese. Fill each muffin cup ¾ full, and bake it in a preheated 375 degree Fahrenheit oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until firm. Store in an airtight container for up to one week, or freeze them for later.
