Quick and Easy Breakfast

Breakfast is ready!

Those of you who know me know that I love a cooked breakfast! I've put them on here before as a victory 'look what I've done for very few SmartPoints' kind of thing. There are some days however you just can't make yourself do it right? 

For all a healthy breakfast is a great start to the day I think we are sometimes fooled into thinking that actually being full for longer is less important then the calorie intake.  

Its difficult to get your head around sometimes that its the foods and whats in them which are important. One of my favourite things at the moment are eggs. When they brought in the Flex Smartpoints eggs were one of the food which weightwatchers changed from having a points value to them not having points at all. The reasoning is that studies showed that eating certain foods had no effect on the rate that you loose weight (if cooked and prepared in the right manner).

So naturally WeightWatchers websites have exploded with foods which can be made free (or very low) in SmartPoints. Now Egg was not the only free food found on the Flex but it does help with making delicious foods!

So this is breakfast on the go. I'll tell you before I show the ingredients they are 1 Smartpoint for two cups.  They are great for people on the go, food you can literally prepare in advance, pick up and run and they really take very little time to prepare as well (though I'll admit I didn't time it!)

What You'll need

A Muffin tin

6 eggs 

3 bacon medallions

3 mushrooms

6 cherry tomatoes

Fry light Spray

1. With the frylight, spray the muffin tin with it
2. break the eggs placing one egg in each cup
3. get a fork break the yokes and whisk the eggs lightly in the tray (don't worry if its not scrambled completely)
4. cut up the bacon medallions and share equally among the six cups
5. Cut up the mushrooms and share equally among the six cups
6. cut up the Tomatoes and share equally among the six cups
7. Place in oven 190 (fan oven) gas mark 5 for 15 minutes.

I've also seen this done with cheese though you will need to add those points/calories to the final count.

Per recipe:

Bacon medallions =97 calories /1 Flex SmartPoint

eggs=338 calories/ 0 Flex SmartPoints 

Mushrooms= 85 Calories/ 0 Flex SmartPoints

For those on weightwatchers its a great little snack if you are on the hungry side and the plus side is they are made up already to go!
