Hopefully many of you realize the necessity of a well balanced breakfast. I am not yet a believer in the a.m. fasting ritual that some people are preaching...I enjoy stuffing my face too much.
At any rate, more often than not, military-types skip the most important meal of the day because most of us don't have the luxury of working nine-to-five...I can empathize; it's tough to bust out the skillet at 4:45 a.m.
Fear not, folks. There are plenty quick, easy and healthy solutions. From previous posts, it's pretty obvious that one of my preferred methods is blending (see below for my rendition of the perfect morning smoothie). If you're married, be prepared to deal with a scolding spouse as soon as you hit the puree button...she'll get over it.
Once your palate (being the food-savvy aficionados that we are) craves something a bit more meaty, try some egg muffins. I recommend that you do them the night prior, then stick them in the microwave in the morning for a quick bite-to-go. They are incredibly simple:
- About 15-20 eggs/egg whites
- Choice of meat
- Choice of veggies (try some peppers)
- Cheese (obviously optional)
Bake at 350 for 20 minutes. They are incredible. I know some of you have your own variations - feel free to share them.
This morning, I made a simple batch with chorizo and cheese.
