Make High Protein Breakfast
Recipe Name: High Protein Breakfast
Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup of cooked quinoa
- 1/2 cup of cooked black beans
- 1/4 cup of diced red bell pepper
- 1/4 cup of diced red onion
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh spinach
- 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooking spray or olive oil for greasing the pan
Step-by-Step Guide:
1. In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten. Set aside.
2. In a large skillet, heat a small amount of cooking spray or olive oil over medium heat.
3. Add the diced red bell pepper and red onion to the skillet and sauté for about 2-3 minutes, until they start to soften.
4. Add the cooked quinoa and black beans to the skillet, stirring well to combine with the vegetables. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to heat through.
5. Reduce the heat to low and pour the beaten eggs over the quinoa and bean mixture in the skillet. Stir gently to evenly distribute the eggs.
6. Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are fully cooked and set, about 5-6 minutes.
7. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the mixture and cover the skillet with a lid. Allow the cheese to melt for about 1-2 minutes.
8. Remove the skillet from heat and let it sit, covered, for a couple of minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
9. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
10. Serve the high protein breakfast hot, either on its own or with a side of fresh fruit or avocado slices.
Enjoy your nutritious and delicious high protein breakfast!
