Recipe of the week!

Breakfast for the week!

Chicken Sausage and Egg Casserole.
5 Fresh and Easy chicken sausage links apple and cinnamon (No additives 120 calories, 2.5g fat, 4 carbs & 19g protein)
5 organic cagefree eggs
10 egg whites
6 green onion stalks
8oz pkg mushrooms
3tbsp coconut oil

Preheat oven to 350
In a large pan ground sausage links with 2tbsp of coconut oil when brown add chopped green onion sauté for 2-3 minutes then add chopped mushrooms for 1-2 minutes.  In a bowl whisk eggs together until nice and fluffy add salt and pepper to your tastes.

In a 9x13 pan coat with 1 tbsp of coconut oil add ground sausage, onions and mushrooms spread evenly on bottom of pan then pour eggs on top.

Cook for approx 35-40 mins. This lasts me 5 days exactly. Daily nutritional facts break down is 16.5grams fat, 35grams of protein and less then 10grams of carbs. As you notice I don’t care about the calorie intake. I’m primarily only concerned with how much protein, fat and carbs. This same recipe could last the average male 3-4 days and women 5-7 days.
