Simple Egg Breakfast

[caption id="attachment_694" align="aligncenter" width="740"] ©2013ItsAbbyTime[/caption]

This is a quick and easy recipe I put together while I was in a hurry one morning. I wanted something yummy, but I didn't want to make anything too heavy. I'm not huge on breakfast, but when I do get hungry I want something that is not going to consume my time especially in the morning. I feel like I'm always a mommy on the go and the last thing I want to do is spend most of my morning making some type of gourmet breakfast.

You can also add any type of veggies or breakfast meat in this meal. I know that bacon is a big breakfast item and I'm sure that would be a great option to add to this recipe.

The beauty of this scramble is that it's easy and you can add anything you would like. You can even change the seasonings by adding rosemary and Thyme for an Italian flare, or you can go heavy on the cumin for a more smokey and rich Mexican flavor. This is the kind of recipe you can go crazy with. Just go easy on the salt ;)

Deconstructed Burrito

I made this meal this morning for breakfast. I was browsing Food Network and was inspired to have a Mexican style breakfast. Originally I wanted to wrap this in a tortilla, but soon realized that I ran out. I guess you can say that's a good thing that way I eliminated the unnecessary carbs for this morning.

This recipe was completely eyeballed. If there is anything that you want to add to the deconstructed burrito do so. This is just something small and simple I whipped up since I had the ingredients.

Fitspirational #02

It's time for another round of Fitspirational Tuesday! I can't believe I lagged on this after I had just mentioned having a goal for my blog. I was pretty swamped yesterday and I just didn't have the time to sit down and just work on my blog. I'm making up for yesterday by posting today.

What's the big update with me? I have changed my eating and so far it has been 6 days of eating healthier. I have given up on beer and even though it sounds delicious by the time I am off work I drink water instead. To be honest I am still struggling with the eating, but it's not as difficult as it used to be like when I first started. The first few days were a killer and there were times when I wanted to just go to In N Out and grab a burger with animal style fries.

I probably should be embarrassed that I posted this picture! Please excuse the mess in the background as well. I guess you can say that I'm not fat, but I do feel overweight since I've gained so much weight back. I have one straight shape and I need more curves than this and the good kind, haha. I have been resorting into doing my crazy walks over the weekend. I try to stay active at home by moving around often and cleaning. I may not working at the gym but I do what I can once I get home from work.  I have also been eating a lot healthier like I have mentioned and here are a few meals that I've been having on the daily.

This is what I have been eating for lunch and dinner for the past week. Okay, similar meals but you catch my drift! I have been eating lots of either Ezekial or Whole Wheat bread. I have also cut down on the oil and have either been baking or steaming my veggies. I have been making sure that I do not overeat. I try to drink water before any meal that way I can get full faster. I am starting my journey slow, but at least I'm starting to work on my goal rather than having it just sit in the back of my mind hoping for a change. My goal is to lose 5-10 lbs. this month and I think I can do it!

Eating Health-ier

I am trying so hard to make healthier meals at home. Honestly it's a pain in the ass when you're struggling to eat something healthy even though it's so delicious. I love the healthy meals that I make, but sometimes I just want something super greasy and crispy.

Pasta dinner last week

This whole dish is vegan-friendly. I wanted to try a recipe that I found online, but I forgot to save it on my phone. If this is similar to your recipe please let me know so that I can give you credit for it.

This dish is mainly made with garlic, lime, and fettuccine. I added grilled asparagus and soy Italian sausage.

It was yummy and a much healthier alternative than having to go to Macaroni Grill and order something that was +900 calories. I can't even believe how many calories one dish is. It's insane! I want to start jotting down the food that I make and post it here. I think I want to do a weekly update on the meals that I eat throughout the week. I think I'll call it Abby's Good Eats and that's obviously off of Good Eats on Food Network. Except I would have to say that show is a lot more informative than what my future posts may entail. If anything I'll even add the actual recipe to my recipes once I get the chance to sit down and just write about it.

I wasn't sure if any of you knew that I have two recipe's on there right now. For some vegan Siopao and vegan Thai Iced Tea. You should check it out! I'm still looking on expanding my blog once I figure out what my main goal is with my site.

I love eating healthy because it has a ton of benefit and whoever said that healthy food taste's like shit has not had real good healthy meals. I used to have that mentality that healthy food was going to taste disgusting, but I slowly learned to enjoy my veggies like an adult and I even want more! My favorite has got to be asparagus. It's delicious and so easy to cook.I prefer grilling them or just heating them up on a pan and drizzling it with lemon and a little pepper. They go great for almost any dish. I know I can't continue to eat pasta everyday, but I think that the next time I make pasta I'm going to substitute it with whole wheat or gluten-free.

A step into the right direction! Now I have to make sure to stick with it and not fall into eating crap again.
