Spinach Mushroom omelette

Breakfast is one of my favorite meals of the day..I also LOVE it that my kids LOVE breakfast too ;) 

Our breakfast usually consist of eggs, bacon or sausage... And LOADS of CARBS.. Croissant, bagel or BUTTER BISCUITS 

SINCE I BEEN trying to eat healthier.. We are cutting back on the carbs and trying to incorporate more veggies and fruits. 
This morning we did great.. We had TURKEY  BACON and a spinach/mushroom omelette 

Ingredients: 
3 eggs.. Beaten really well 
1/2 C spinach
1/4 C sliced mushroom 
Onion 

** beat eggs and add your seasoning.. All I added was a dash of Tony and cracked black pepper 


I cooked my onion and mushroom first with a little olive oil.. once it was cooked I pour in my beaten eggs and then turn heat down to medium low.. I laid my spinach on top then I placed a lid over my omelette for about 1 minute 
Flip the omelette in half and cover for another minute 
Plate and serve with turkey bacon 
ENJOY!!

Pork chop with steam broccoli

My first day of clean eating and I wanted to make something easy and flavorful..I LOVE STEAM BROCCOLI 

Pork chop: 
4 pieces of pork chop (bone in) 
3 T ranch seasoning 
1 T Tony Chachere's ( Cajun seasoning) 
1 t garlic powder 
2 T Italian dressing ( needed a binding agent) 
Pepper 
Marinated n refrigerator for at least 2 hrs 

Direction: 
In a bowl.. Mix all your ingredients then marinate your pork chop. 

If you can grill these pork chop it would taste even better. I just used an indoor grill pan.. Cook both side and cut into little strip.. 
Use the juice and pour over the chops 

Broccoli: 
I added about 6 C of water in a pan and add your broccoli floret.. Cook for about 10 minutes then shock in cold water. 

Serve with chops 
Enjoy!!
