Hard Baked Eggs

I’m a big proponent of plan and prep your weekly menu so you can eat healthy and stick to a budget.

Hard baked eggs are something one of my members turned me on to. It seemed easier to me to do large batch of eggs in the oven instead boiling them. So I’ve done both and I find my results to be more consistent and easier to peel than the latter. So this is how I do my eggs from now on.

Hard baked eggs

Preheat oven to 325°F

Place eggs directly on rack I do a staggered pattern to get as many as possible on. leave on to 20-25 min. depending on how you like your eggs done. When finished I like to use a pair of thongs to safely get them out of the oven into an ice bath. Once cooled I place them in the fridge for a quick meal, added to salad, or an easy breakfast.

Protein Packed Pizza

Protein packed pizza

 

16oz ground turkey

12oz or 4 cups of oatmeal

2 tsp of ground flax meal

4 tsp baking powder

 

Makes about 7 patties

 

Preheat oven 350 degrees. Combine all ingredients together throughly ( I get better results when weighing my oatmeal. If too dry add one egg white to help the “dough” comes together ( this will slightly change the calories per crust but not much). When “dough” is well mixed separate mix with about 1/2 cup portions. Place patties on a cookie sheet and fatten them down until 1/2 inch thick about 2 per cookie sheet. Cook in oven about 2-5 min on each side or until turkey is cooked through. If cooking all at once please be mindful of not trying to flatten out the next ground on the hot cookie sheet! Let   Patties cool and freeze them with ziplock or Tupperware.

When ready to eat take them out of the freezer top them with desired toppings and bake in oven at 350 until the cheese(or cottage cheese) melts.

Grok Rocks

This is a recipe from The Primal Blueprint Cookbook. Grok Rocks are simple prunes covered in dark chocolate (70% cacao). Just use a double broiler to melt the chocolate, dip each prune and place on a cookie sheet, then chill them in the fridge for a half hour.

We brought these to a Healthy Pot Luck, but probably made to many since they turned into a post-workout breakfast snack for the weekend.

Primal Hash

Mark Sisson had a recipe for hash that did not include potatoes, so I was intrigued. Since I have been in this breakfast slump (eating the same thing day after day) I wanted to venture out. The recipe called for meat and root vegetables. I have recently decided I do not like beets so I used parsnips and carrots. To my surprise the parsnips were texture was very similar to that of a potato. Overall, I liked this recipe enough to serve it to my dad. This is low carb so it is an “anytime” meal (as opposed to post-workout only).

Ingredients:

1 large parsnip
2 medium carrots
1 yellow onion
1 red pepper
1 pound pork sausage
cummin to taste
pepper to taste

In a large frying pan cook chopped onion and red pepper, let cook until soft. Add ground pork sausage and incorporate with onion mixture, add parsnips and carrots and stir until the vegetables are soft then add the cummin and pepper. Serve.

My Dad came over for breakfast and loved this. It is a crowd pleaser and a low carb option for breakfast.

Makes four servings.

Berry Clafouti

This dish was exciting described as a French custard variation. I was
hoping to flex my bakers skills, yet it’s ease of composition makes it
appealing to the non-baker.  I would compare the dish to last week’s
peach omlete in texture and flavor except the execution made it a
standout low-carb/ calorie friendly dish that can be prepared for any
guest and is satisfying with a cup of hot coffee. I can’t wait to play
with other variations. The original recipe was made as a chicken curry
dish but we thought a berry version sounded more enticing so
blackberries & strawberries where the substitute and vanilla, cinnamon, and a
pinch of brown sugar accompany it. I sprinkled it with slivered almonds
that creates a nice crunchy texture in the final product. It takes about an hour to prepare, and is an “anytime meal” as opposed to a post-workout only meal.

Ingredients (makes 8 servings)

Eggs 6
Butter 6 tablespoons
Coconut milk 3/4 cup
Vanilla 1 tablespoon
Cinnamon 1 teaspoon
Brown Sugar 1 tablespoon
Strawberries 1 cup

Peaches and Cream Omelet

This recipe came from the Gourmet Nutrition cookbook, and is an “anytime meal” as opposed to a “post-workout only meal.” It only took about 10 minutes to make and did not require a lot of prep work.

This was a fun little change for breakfast and i rated it “good for us, not something I would serve to guests.” I did stray from the recipe a little by using a teaspoon of honey instead of Splenda, I added a teaspoon of vanilla, and did not use the yogurt garnish. It tasted really similar to french toast – I know, I didn’t expect that either.

Ingredients (makes 2 servings)

Olive oil cooking spray
Egg whites (6 large) 1 cup
Whole omega-3 eggs 2
Cinnamon 1/8 tsp
Splenda (1 package) 1/4 tsp
Low-fat cottage cheese 1/2 cup
Peached (small diced) 2
Pecans (crushed) 1/4 cup
Low-fat plain yogurt 1/2 cup
