My favorite meal!

I wake up early so I have a protein shake before my work out. I read somewhere that having 20+ grams of protein when you first wake up can help speed up your metabolism for the day. A shake is an easy way to get the protein without ruining my work out, but a boring breakfast which is why meal two is my favorite meal of the day!

I made up this super yummy egg scramble with a little Pam, garlic, cayenne pepper, lots of broccoli, 2 egg whites, 1 organic whole egg, black beans and topped with a little hot salsa. This meal is high in protein and very satisfying! You could add cheese and be on plan, but I am working on eliminating dairy from at least 2 meals a day.

If you munch on an apple while you are cooking you really have everything covered ... plus if you only have a protein shake for meal 1 you are probably hungry!!
