Egg Muffins
Spray w/Pam a 12 hole muffin pan, put crumbled cooked sausage or cut up ham or bacon or whatever you like in the cups. Some broccoli or spinach or asparagus would be good too. Add grated cheese, cheddar or montery jack or swiss. Don't over fill it w/the meat & cheese, like about 1/2 way or 3/4 at most. Beat 8 eggs with lt cream or half and half, just a splash and spoon egg mixture into the cups. Bake 350 degrees, maybe 15 minutes or so, you'll see them start to brown.
The possibilities are endless, you can add any kind of cheese, meat or veggies, they are wonderful to freeze. In the mornings I like to grab one or two out of the freezer and by the time I get to work they are defrosted and ready to heat.
LOVE LOVE LOVE THESE!!

Portabello Burgers
This is easy.
Portabello Mushroom Caps
Ground Beef (chicken, turkey or veggie burgers work good too)
Cheese
Cook your burger any way you like it. Then grill some large portabello mushrooms caps w/a little olive oil brushed on them.
When done use the caps like you would bread, you can even put your favorite toppings on it, bacon, cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickle, mayo, katchup (a touch), mustard, onions, etc......
OR !!! make some Low Carb Chili and put that on top for a chili burger.

Chicken Cordon Blue Chicken Burgers
Makes 4 large burgers

2 heafty teaspoons sweet paprika
2 heafty teaspoons poultry seasoning
1 tsp salt
2 chopped up scallions
1 - 2 Tbs oil (what ever you prefer)
**********************************
Ham
Swiss Cheese
Garlic soft spreadable cheese
**********************************
Mix first 6 ingred together well, make 4 burgers, they are sticky so when you flatten them out coat the outside with more oil so they are managable.
Grill them, and just before they are done, spread some soft garlic cheese on top, place a slice of ham on top and then a slice of swiss cheese (melt it).
These can be tweaked to add any spice/seasoning you like.
We ate this with a bunch of sauted mushrooms....very very good !!!!!

I make chicken burgers alot, you can stuff them with just about anything.
To keep my calories and carbs lower with the burgers, I do NOT add breadcrumbs, I just throw in some poultry spices, and any kind of ckn spice you like, onion, sweet paprika, garlic, etc. They are VERY sticky so you might want to add a teaspoon of olive oil in the mix (normally I don't but you can). What I do is spray a plate w/pam first, plop some ckn mixture on it, spray some pam on top of the ckn blob and flatten it out into burger shapes. Also, when you grill it, if you grill it, spray the spatula first. I'm telling you, it is so worth it, YUM!!!!!!!!!!! low cal, low carb, high protein and low fat...what more can you ask for and left overs are wonderful.
