Turkey Egg Muffins

Lunch meat is great in so many ways, and I really enjoy it in this recipe! It makes it simple to make and tasty to eat. Just grab some sliced turkey meat (circular is the best shape for this recipe), and place it in the bottom of a muffin tin (if you want smaller portions, a mini muffin pan works great). Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

In a separate bowl, crack some eggs and whisk. Add some cut up vegetables (tomatoes, green onions, bell peppers, asparagus, green beans, spinach, whatever floats your boat!) and some spices if you would like (salt and pepper are always good).

Then pour the egg-veggie batter into the muffin pan lined with turkey meats. Throw it in the oven, and out come easy breakfast/snack protein muffins! Try cooking them for about 15-20 minutes if you are using a normal muffin pan. If you're using a mini muffin pan try 8-12 minutes.

Turkey Bacon and Eggs

I love the classic bacon and eggs breakfast, but didn't like how fatty I felt after eating tons of bacon (because sometimes I lose self control when there is steaming bacon in front of me). The first time I had turkey bacon after eating regular bacon it was kind of strange, but from the second time on it became a treat that my husband Andrew and I looked forward to!

We make this meal about three times a week, if not more! We cook up 2 eggs for each of us (we like ours over easy) and 2 or 3 pieces of turkey bacon per person. We enjoy eating it with frozen mixed vegetables that have been cooked on the stove in a bit of vegetable oil. We then put salt and pepper over everything, eat it up, and then we grab a piece of whole grain bread. We like to put applesauce on our bread, or sometimes peanut butter, and I sometimes enjoy eating it with sliced peaches on top (both fresh and canned).

We like this meal because it has protein, vegetables, whole grain, and either fruit or nuts. It is seriously so good!

Oh, another tip for the turkey bacon: we don't like to cook it to the point that it becomes crispy. For some reason it has a funny taste when it is crispy. We like it pretty floppy, but definitely not raw!

Let me know what you think if you try this out! Also if you try it in a different way, and how that went for you.
