EGG WHITE & SPINACH CAKES

Recently, I started making these SUPER easy peasy Egg White & Spinach cakes to eat as a snack everyday.  I make them on Sunday, so I have them so the week.  

This makes it SO easy to just grab and go, and you’re getting your veggies and protein in.   They’re high in protein.  You can also add any veggies you want really.

All you need is Egg Whites, Coconut Oil, Spinach, Cupcake pan and your choice of toppings.  I used Avocado, and Sir Kensington Ketchup, which I prefer because of its natural ingredients.  Scroll down for recipe.

Step 1:  Start your oven and set it at 375.  Meanwhile, Grease your pan with some coconut oil.  Make sure you grease the entire cup so it doesn’t stick.

Step 2:  Take a tiny handful of spinach, and tear it up into each cup.  I use about 3 leaves per cup.  It would be yummy to add peppers, kale, green onions, or even some mozzarella cheese (which has less fat)

Step 3: Pour in egg whites, filling each cup to the top.  I get these cartons from Costco.

After filling, put it in the oven for 15-20 minutes.

Step 4:  When done, carefully remove each egg white cake from the pan onto a plate.  

Grab an Avocado, and slice onto two cakes.  You can use whatever toppings you prefer.  

Next, pour some Sir Kensington Ketchup on and enjoy!  It is so easy and extremely healthy!

I have 2 cakes a day, so I meal prep Sunday and make enough for 6 days, so 12 cakes.  Meal prepping is SO important in eating healthy and often.  

What happens (at least to me) when I don’t meal prep, I start to get really hungry and grab the first thing I see, and often overeat.    You go into starvation mode.

So MEAL PREP and snack often so you don’t ever go into starvation mode.  It is so good to eat at least every 2-3 hours.  Something nice and satisfying.

Also, when we get to busy, which most of us are!  We tend to forget about our health and grab whatever we can.  Thats why meal prepping is so important.  When you prep your meals, you have it all there, so you can just grab it and eat it and not even think about what you’re going to eat, because it’s all right there in front of you!

You hold yourself more accountable too.  You want to eat healthy when you put in all that effort!  It is a good motivator to be good and eat good!   And not to mention, it is the best way to start your week!   Especially if you’re gone 8-10 hours everyday.  

I am home most the time, and still meal prep, because I find it so much easier to make healthier choices throughout my day.

It takes a good hour every Sunday for me to prep it all.  And honestly, it has been so beyond worth it!

I will keep posting about meal prepping and do a video about it, to help you get a better idea of how I do it.  

My 7 DAY MEAL PLAN is exactly what I eat everyday, and how much I eat and how often.  I give you a grocery list, and have all the recipes, and macros laid out for you, so you don’t have to do a thing, but make it!  So check that out, if you need help with healthy eating, and feel like you’re in a stump with it.

I know it can be overwhelming at times, but once you’ve made it a habit, it won’t seem so hard!  You will actually love the lifestyle.  My meal plan is very realistic and easy to follow.  You won’t be left hungry.

CILANTRO TURKEY FETA BURGER

This isn’t your basic turkey burger, you will just love the taste of this one!  

I have been really into turkey burgers lately, and created this one just the other night with my mom.  

It was SO delicious, I had to share with you!  I am obsessed with Cilantro and Feta, so why not throw them in together, and made goodness.

It is very easy, and cheap.  I had mine bun-less and topped it with avocado, red onion, and tomato and dipped it in dijon mustard. 

If you want some carbs, add a bun.  I like to use whole wheat, and if you want a lower carb bun, get the 100 calorie thin buns.  They can be bought at any grocery store in the bread section.
