Breakfast is my favorite meal. I sometimes enjoy it for lunch or dinner. As we all know, each of these is important having a good breakfast whether it is early or mid-morning – breakfast is always a welcomed meal. In addition to a good breakfast, being aware of your cholesterol can save your life.
With that keeping in the spirit of each of these celebrations, here are a few of my favorites (1 for each day of the week) low in calories, fat and bad cholesterol.
• An apple and an ounce of almonds and a cup of yogurt is a great start or
• 3 Omega-3 egg omelet with 1/2 ounce cheese, and raw broccoli and peppers.
• 1 cup of blueberries with a hand full of almonds, pecans or walnuts.
• A slice of sprouted grain bread (I love Ezekiel 4:9) with 1 tablespoon of nut butter.
• Chicken scramble omelet: 6 egg whites, 3 ounces of chicken breast cooked and diced, 1 ½ ounces of parmesan cheese, and ½ teaspoon of basil.
• Protein shake – 1-cup skim milk, Kiefer or plain unsweetened soymilk, 1 scoop protein powder, ½ banana, 1-cup berries, ½-cup ice. Combine and blend in blender.
Note: A couple shakes of cinnamon add a nice flavorful twist.
• Spinach scramble – ½-cup roma tomato, diced, 1 cup Spinach leaves, cleaned and dried, 6 egg whites, 1 ½ ounces feta cheese, crumbled 1 tablespoon fresh chopped basil. Sauté tomatoes and spinach until slightly tender. Beat egg whites cook in pan until almost set add veggie mix, cheese and bail. Cook to desired firmness.
