Ok I admit that tonight, of course on my first night of blogging, I'm exhausted from the gym, but, I still cooked dinner. I wanted my first blog to really show off my skills but it just didn't happen tonight. Eric had a long day at work today so I wanted to surprise him with his favorite dinner :) breakfast. Ya, eggs, bacon, toast the whole shabang! Here is what we had;

Eric and I both love bacon just like every other human on earth. But, instead of regular bacon we switch it up and use turkey bacon. Now, remember this is eating to live not living to eat so you have to step out of the box and try new things if you are skeptical. I promise it's not as bad as you may think. Cooked in a dry sautee pan until golden brown on each side.

 Next, I looked in my veggie drawer and found onion, sweet pepper, and spinach. I chopped all of them up about the same size, medium dice, and sautee the onions and pepper in olive oil until carmelized on the outside and tender. I then toss my handful of fresh spinach in and sautee until just wilted. In a seperate bowl I cracked three eggs, poured a dash of nonfat milk, and added garlic salt and pepper. Stir that up and pour it right on top of the sauteed veggies and scramble like you regularly would.
Here is the end result! This is Eric's plate, not mine. He had two pieces of whole wheat dry toast, turkey bacon, onion, pepper, and spinach omlette, and a side of grapes and strawberries. This took all of about 15 minutes to prepare and cook. I had a smaller portion of this exact meal minus the toast.
 Lets just say he was very happy to see breakfast when he got home! Hmmmmmm now what should I take out of the freezer to defrost for tomorrow night???????? :)
