A Two Bite Breakfast: Bacon & Eggs in Toast Cups
Bacon & Eggs in Toast Cups Yesterday we got probably about 10 inches of white fully snow, which meant that church was canceled this morning and so was Hubby’s softball game. I usually make breakfast on Saturday mornings, but this Saturday I had to go into work for a few hours.
I am so sick. Of myself. Do you know what I mean? I'm just fed up TO HERE with me . I feel boring, uninspired, whiny, ridiculous, apathetic, and just TOTALLY BLEH.

This is another recipe from my mother’s recipe collection. It’s a make-ahead concoction meant to be spread on English muffins and broiled. And it’s just…it’s just…

If you ask my kids, they will tell you that I'm not a lover of french toast. My husband likes it however, and so I made it this morning. This is actually very good, and the recipe I will use, from here on out! Ingredients: 8 thick slices white bread 4 eggs 1 cup heavy cream ¼ cup honey (heated in the microwave until runny) ½ teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 2 Tablespoons grated orange zest 1 teaspoon vanilla extract ¼ cup butter Directions:

Banana lovers will love these low fat pancakes. The flavor of banana nut bread in a pancake, made with whole wheat flour, potassium rich bananas and fiber rich walnuts, which are also high in omega 3 fatty acids. Delicious topped with agave or maple syrup (extra points). I've included the points with and without the nuts.

Spring is here and asparagus is at it's best this time of the year. I buy lots of it and steam it to use for quick recipes throughout the week. Asparagus is high in fiber, vitamin A and C, and low in calories. This delicious frittata uses reduced fat Swiss cheese and egg whites to keep this low in points.

Guiltless Egg and Bacon Sandwich
When you are craving bacon and eggs, make this quick, easy egg sandwich. This is both filling and healthy! I like to buy egg whites from Trader Joe's, it's great to have on hand.
Caramelized onions, sauteed bell peppers and zucchini combined create a winning egg dish. Frittatas are very versatile, they can be eaten for breakfast, lunch or dinner if paired with a salad. Cut into small squares, they can be served as an appetizer as well.
