I am bad about eating Breakfast because I fall into the same rut and eat the same thing everyday. Gets boring.

So I found these on Pinterest: http://www.amyskitch...sandwiches.html

I mean, who doesn't like an egg mcmuffin?!

I baked the eggs last night and stuck them in the fridge. I toasted a 10 grain english muffin and put a smidge of butter on it. I put an egg and a piece of canadian bacon and half a slice of cheese on it and put it in the microwave for 20-30 seconds. Put it all together - and it was awesome.

McDonal's Egg McMuffin:

300 calories

12g Fat

30g Carbs

18g Protein

Homemade Egg McMuffin:

250 calories

7g Fat

31g carbs

18g Protein

Information would change slightly depending on what kind of muffin you used. Super simple and easy (and cheaper) way to start the day off with a good filling breakfast!

these look great! i guess you could do the same with poaching the eggs in the poacher. Thanks for the great idea!

How long did you bake the eggs? I never even thought about baking eggs. Who knew?

15 minutes on 350 degree oven. Yolks were cooked through. You could go for less time if you wanted runny yolk.

I'm not on that stage of solid food yet but can't wait to get there - I love these sandwiches @ McDonalds but this is cheaper & quicker.. My only question is does the egg stay good for a whole week after being cooked?? I will definetly be trying this in a few weeks when I can start solids... Thanks for sharing...

Not sure about how long they will actually stay good for as I just made them for the first time yesterday. But I made more because my husband also eats these for breakfast. If you are worried about them going bad before you eat them all - just cook fewer eggs at a time.

That sounds good - I used to make them pre-surgery but made my eggs like an omelet to put on the muffin. What is your daily carb count that you can have? I am allowed about 40g a day at 10weeks.

Thanks

I wasn't given limits on certain things like how many carbs/day. My dietician wants me to have up to 1500 calories per day with 85g protein. I need 10 servings of protein, 4 veggie servings, 3 fruit servings, 4 starches and 3 fat servings in a day. And I work it out that way. I keep track of my food intake on MyFitnessPal.

Thanks, great idea..

No way could I eat that much bread. I might do an open face on a hiking day. I'd also scramble the egg. It's weird. I love eggs, but only scrambled and fried hard with the yolk squished. Poached or hard boiled eggs give off a smell I cannot tolerate.

I still eat about 750 calories a day with my carbs below 40. I am 5'1" though. I'm 8 months out BTW.

I can't eat a whole one either!

I've made these and put them all together and froze them in double bags good for a few weeks

I work at Headstart and this past Thursday morning we had eggs for breakfast so I tried this recipe. Keep in mind I cook for 3-4yr olds and they absolutely loved the individual mini eggs. Such a great idea.

So glad to read this! I'm on pre op diet now and the whole grain english muffins in the fridge are taunting me. I was thinking I probably wouldn't be able to have them again. I can't wait until I get to the point where I can have one.

If you are still losing watch your carbs. That is as many as I dould have in one day while I was still losing.

I'm going to try this with Egg Beaters. I've also found some sites that sell low carb bread - a bit expensive but may be worth it. Thanks for the idea!
