In this how to you will learn how to prepare a simple low fat, low calorie breakfast.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Skillet
  • Pam cooking spray
  • Egg Starts
  • White or wheat bread
  • Fat free cheese
  • Salsa
  • Low fat ham lunchmeat
  1. Step 1

    First, spray your skillet with non fat cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Most cooking sprays are 0 calories and 0 fat per serving.

  2. Step 2

    Second, measure and add your Egg starts. Egg starts are normally 30 calories and 0 fat per serving. Depending on your dietary needs and goals decide on how many servings are appropriate for you.

  3. Step 3

    Third, cut your low fat, low calorie ham or other type of lunch meat into 1/4 size slices. Add to the cooking eggs and stir. A lot of ham is 99% fat free and very low calorie. Read the label to make sure! Cook your Egg Starts as directed until done.

  4. Step 4

    Fourth, plate your eggs and ham and add low fat, low calorie cheese and serve with salsa and 2 slices of toast. Most salsa is 15 calories and 0 fat per 2 tablespoons. Bread can vary depending on grain, however, regular white bread is approximately 80 calories and 1 gram of fat per slice.

Tips & Warnings
  • Try adding green onions!
  • Bacon bits are a great low fat, low calorie add!
  • Add fresh fruit and cottage cheese to the side.
  • Always consult a doctor before starting any type of diet.

on 3/11/2009 Really good advice, just not for a guy who works 70 hours a week and burns 5,000 calories a day. I'd dry up and blow away...5 stars anyway for knowing what you're talking about.
