The mornings are a crazy time for parents with kids who need to go to school by 7:30 a.m. and want to wait until the last minute to wake up.

Donuts, sugar cereal, and other "easy to prepare foods" are not healthy, so what do you do?

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Egg Beaters
  • Pam Non-Stick Spray
  • Lean turkey meat
  • Mozzarella cheese
  1. Step 1

    While your kids are getting ready, sneak downstairs and fire up the burners. Don't let them know that you are cooking a healthy, protein-filled nearly fat-free breakfast!

  2. Step 2

    Spray the pan with Pam and drop in a few slices of turkey. Feel free to tear the slices with your hands or cut them, whatever is quicker and easier for you.

  3. Step 3

    Cook the turkey until it is lightly browned, stirring occasionally.

  4. Step 4

    Then, pour (yes, pour) in the Egg Beaters and let it form into what looks and tastes like scrambled eggs, stirring occasionally.

  5. Step 5

    Stir and serve. Your kids will love it and they'll never know it was good for them!

Tips & Warnings
  • Add low-fat turkey bacon
  • Add a little green tabasco (be careful)
  • Add green or red peppers if you have time
  • Add low fat turkey bacon
  • Add a little green tabasco (becareful)
  • Add green or red peppers if you have time
  • Don't let them know it's not real eggs!

on 6/17/2009 Great tip. I'll have to try it once school starts again... you could also wrap it all up into a burrito for an "on the go" breakfast!

on 10/1/2006 Eating healthy can tast great. I do the same thing, Pam instead of butter, Egg Beaters or Egg Whites instead of eggs. Egg Beaters are the easiest to use since they come in easy to pour containers.
