Are you short on time in the morning yet you want to get in your protein? Well I suggest whipping up a few Egg Muffins! I cooked a pound of ground turkey and added spinach to it on Mother’s Day and was planning on making egg scramble every morning. Well I’m short on time trying to get Amiyah to school and don’t want to wake up super early to get in my workout. So I decided to make egg muffins with the remainder of the ground turkey. (Note – you can add any meat (or leave out) and veggies you want to your eggs and bake it.)
I used 3 eggs and 7 egg whites, added black pepper and the ground turkey and spinach mix. It made a total of 9 and I’ll have 3 each morning with my oatmeal, grapefruit, and green tea. I sprayed the muffin tins and added the 1/4 cup mixture and baked for 25 mins on 350º.
Now all I have to do is pop them in the microwave in the morning and boil my water for my oatmeal and green tea and breakfast is ready in minutes! Easy Peasy!!
Next I whipped up this Chicken & Vegetable Stir-fry. I have to say this was REALLY good! I know I say that just about every meal but stir-fry is one of my favorite meals. I have to admit that I am guilty of purchasing vegetables and letting them sit in the refrigerator and go bad. Pre-cut vegetables seemed overly priced to me but what’s the difference in me letting vegetables go bad in my refrigerator?
So I picked up this Asparagus Saute along with the Pizza Style Portabella Mushrooms at Kroger yesterday. First I sauteed the asparagus mixture and then set aside. Then I cut a pound and a half of boneless skinless chicken breast, added 2 tablespoons of the honey teriyaki marinade and sauteed until cooked. I added the asparagus saute to the chicken mixture and sauteed for 2 minutes. Lastly I sprayed Braggs Liquid Aminos on the stir-fry to give it a soy sauce taste.
I cooked some wild rice and added only 1/4 cup to my plate and a cup of the stir-fry and dinner was ready! I’ll have the stir-fry for a few days and fish the other days. Both these meals were made in about an hour and a half, along with tacos for Amiyah.
For the next few days I can spend time with Amiyah when I pick her up from school and not have to worry about preparing meals. Time saver and delish! These Chef Essentials from Kroger are becoming my new favorite “friend”!!
I hope these ideas save you time and money!
