Here is a high protein, quick anytime meal that I LOVE! AND!.. It's meat free. Give it a try and let me know what you think :^)
Veggie Burger and Eggs
Start and finish.
Ingredients:
1- Whole Egg
2- Egg Whites
1- Morning Star Grillers Original
(Optional ingredients: Pepper, Crushed Red Peppers, Veggies such as onion, mushrooms and green peppers go GREAT with this!)
Directions:
*Put veggie burger on microwave safe plate and heat for 45 seconds high power.
*About the same time spray small pan with non-stick spray with stove on getting pan hot.
*Start the 2 egg whites.
*Flip veggie burger and heat for an additional 45 seconds( sometimes needs and extra 10-20 seconds AFTER the second 45 second bout).
*About the same time, add whole egg to egg whites continuing to "fry" the eggs.
*Remove veggie burger from microwave and cut into pieces. Flip eggs.
*Cook to your liking, but for this I like mine over easy, so after about a minute, I take the eggs off pan, place on top of veggie patty and chop the hell out of it, letting the yolk spill onto the "meat" :)
Side note about the veggie burger:
If you cook that bad boy too long, it'll be super hard and not very appetizing and it'll turn you off from these awesome tasting "burgers". Don't do it. I use to HATE these things. I cooked them for like 3 minutes is why! Lol! Follow the directions and you'll have a new favorite also :)
