Great for a quick breakfast on the go! The recipe comes from the Recipe page of the 20/20 Lifestyle website. These "muffins" may use healthier foods in the mix, but they definitely don't lack in flavor. My little sister's response when tasting these was "Are you sure you're allowed to have these on your diet?" (The answer is yes. Yes I am.)
Serves 6
8oz (1 packet) Trader Joe's Reduced Fat Turkey Bacon
1 medium onion
1 cup cherry tomatoes
3 cups egg whites
(optional) fresh basil, to garnish
To Make:
15 minutes
- Place a pan over fire to heat. Preheat oven to 350.
- Dice onion and turkey bacon. Halve or quarter the cherry tomatoes, depending on your preference.
- Mix all ingredients in the pan, and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to make sure nothing sticks. Can optionally spray or use a bit of olive oil, though I've found it's not necessary.
- Meanwhile, divide 3 cups of egg whites evenly between 12 normal muffin tins or 6 jumbo ones. Tins should be about half full.
- Once onions are see-through and juice from tomato is mostly evaporated, take pan off heat. Let cool briefly, then evenly divide the mixture between the muffin tins (about one tbsp per muffin for normal sized tins).
- Optionally, cut up some fresh basil (or herb of choice) and garnish the top of each muffin.
To Bake:
25 minutes
- Bake at 350 for 25 minutes, broiling on high for the last 2. Let cool briefly, then enjoy.
Makes 12 normal muffins or 6 jumbo sized.
In total, 6 servings.
