This
morning I made egg whites and oatmeal... for 5 days. My first batch I
accidentally left the yolks in though. So I tried taking them out
with a fork. Bad idea. I was able to
remove most of the yellow, but accidentally took a lot of white. That
and the fork spilled some yolk. So it ended up more like 3.75 egg
whites and 1 egg yolk. oops. lol.
make sure you use something to make the eggs not stick! |
In
order to make sure I measured the eggs correctly for each morning I
made five separate batches. Don't worry, it didn't take very
long. I cooked up 4 egg whites with season salt and green pepper.
When I ate it it still needed something because I'm used to LOTS of
flavor. So I drizzled some mustard on top. Yummy! Mustard is
acceptable because it is flavorful, but low calorie and pretty clean.
I
also cooked up one batch of oatmeal. One cup of steel cut oats and
one cup of old fashioned oats. Make sure you use the correct
amount of water! Steel cut oats are quite different from regular
oats. Don't worry about following normal cooking directions. Just
follow the SCO directions.
Alright,
so let me explain it better. Boil 4 cups of water. This is usually
when I add in cinnamon and any other flavors or extracts. Add in 1
cup of steel cut oats and one cup of old fashioned oats (Not quick
cooking oats). Turn off stove and stir every now and then until oats
soak up all of the water. And whala! You're done. Today I added
some blueberries, honey, and banana to sweeten. I know I
shouldn't but I needed to!
This was my breakfast this morning before the banana and mustard. |
Split
it over the course of five days. About one cup of oatmeal per day.
I love these containers! |
Perfectly portioned! |
