You’ll want to bookmark this recipe for Ham and Cheese Breakfast Cups! Bake once, eat all week!
But first . . .
I woke up 30 minutes early yesterday and got a quick walk in before work. It was gorgeous – no breeze, 50 degrees. I loved the fog hovering over the river. It was such a great way to set the tone of being on track for the day.
I didn’t do a full grocery shop this past weekend because I had plenty of food to use up. I am the queen of doing a full grocery shop every.single.week until Hannah is like Mom, you can’t fit one more thing in the pantry! Okay, I get it š
I meal prepped these ham, cheese and veggie breakfast cups over the weekend. So easy and delicious and the best part is that each cup is only 2 smart points (but 5 for two and 7 for three). This would be perfect for a brunch because everyone could add their own favorite veggies and it bakes all at once.
I am having trouble with my recipe plugin, so below is the recipe. I love the crispy edges of the ham.
Feel free to use any veggies you like š
Yesterday was such a busy day, I didn’t have time to set up any pretty pictures of my food. I had two breakfast cups (5) with fresh fruit on the side.
Luckily my sister and I got together to walk – it was sunny and 72 – perfect! By the time I got back from our lunch walk, I had already walked 11,000 steps!
In meal planning through my fridge/freezer/pantry I found this . . . soup? chili? Not exactly sure, all I know is that I wrote “5 points per cup” so I had that with an ounce of tortilla chips for 9 points. I think it must have been a vegetarian chili because there wasn’t any meat.
The day flew by. I had a Premier Protein on the train ride home because I had goals to get to the gym before dinner. Hello stranger!
I did the 30 minute circuit first:
And then finished it off with 30 minutes (5 minutes cool down) on the treadmill. I start out at 3.5 mph hour for 4 minutes, then “sprint” one minute and repeat. My last sprint was 6.1 mph – which is about a 9:40 minute mile pace.
I didn’t eat dinner until almost 9:30. I decided to use leftover steak to make a steak, egg, cheese and hashbrown brinner panini. I used the Joseph’s Lavash bread (2) two ounces of steak (2) one egg (2) 3/4 cup Ore Ida hash browns that I cooked with Pam (1) and an ounce of muenster cheese (4) then put it on my panini maker to get it all crispy and melty. I dipped this into spicy salsa and this was a super filling and delicious 11 point dinner.
I ended up with a few steps yesterday š I remember when I first got my Fitbit that I thought it would be impossible to reach 10k steps!
Day 1 of Biz 2.0 was great. I was tempted by apple cider donuts, leftover pizza, gummy bears that were on sale at the store, and I chose me over the food. Now let’s see if I can continue that another day. Just taking it one day at a time, but it feels good to be in control.
The only thing I was lacking yesterday was water – I might have only had 60 ounces, so I am going to fill up my gallon container and keep it on my desk as a reminder to drink up!
How was your Monday? What are your goals today? Make it a great day!
Breakfast cups look delicous!! And I have to congratulate you on the focus and determination, it’s awesome =)
Another gorgeous photo. You do have a gift for capturing some amazing shots. The breakfast cups look pretty yummy but I hear my husband now, where’s the crust? Look at you rocking the workout!
You are so strong Biz!! I wish I had a quarter of your ambition and dedication! I may not stay on track much, but you give me hope and encouragement to try, try and try again each day, so thank you!! You go girl!! ?????
Hi Biz! Not sure if you have heard of Fatdag on WW connect. He has a podcast called Why’s Advice- super motivating. I listen to it when I exercise in the morning. I hope you have a great week. š
Hey Patti – thanks for the heads up – I keep forgetting to check out his podcasts – thanks!
