Sunday

Sunday is usually my cooking and cleaning day. Today I made a batch of the Gourmet Nutrition peanut butter banana post-workout bars (these are so good, TOO good!) (Skwigg calls them poo bars because they look like turds) (TASTY turds!) and these tasty South Beach diet egg cups. I used turkey bacon, 4 whole omega eggs and 4 eggwhites, full-fat cheddar cheese instead of reduced fat (barf) and divided the mixture into 8 cups instead of 6. They are good, very very good, with decent (and PN compliant!) nutritional stats. I eat 2 cups as a mini-meal.


Egg Cups

Makes 6 cups

Ingredients
4 ounces turkey sausage or crumbled turkey bacon
1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
1/4 onion, chopped
5 large eggs
1 can (12 ounces) sliced mushrooms, drained
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded, reduced-fat Cheddar cheese

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Coat a 6-cup nonstick muffin pan with cooking spray, or line with paper baking cups. In a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, cook the sausage, pepper, and onion for 5 minutes or until the sausage is no longer pink. Spoon the mixture into a bowl and cool slightly. Stir in the eggs and mushrooms. Evenly divide the mixture among the prepared muffin cups. Sprinkle with the cheese. Bake for 20 minutes or until the egg is set.

I finally did Drill Max in it's entirety this morning. Normally I just do the 40-minute "Cardio Blast" premix option, which kicks my ass every time. This morning I felt ambitious and decided to brave the whole 70-minute workout. HOLY SHIT. Check out the breakdown here. It's tough stuff. I can't wait to do it again next Sunday.
