Breakfast Meal Prep
For everyone who has to rush out the door in the AM, this healthy breakfast meal prep is your secret weapon to eating protein packed and veggie loaded breakfast Mexican style.
Sauteed broccoli, cauliflower and bell pepper, with scrambled eggs, salsa and whole grain toast.
If you are very hungry and looking for very high protein breakfast, use more eggs. You can also sprinkle cheese on top of veggies or eggs, or just sprinkle some cheese. What the heck?!
What Veggies Can I Use?
This breakfast idea is not only easy, protein packed but is veggie loaded too. Use what you have on hand.
Any firm veggies that you can saute quickly:
- Onion
- Mushrooms
- Zucchini
- Shredded carrots
- Spiralized butternut squash
- Eggplant
Can I Use Egg Whites?
Yes. To replace 8 large eggs you will need to use 2 cups egg whites.
I usually use organic or local eggs from a farmer where I know chicken roam free. Egg yolk contains most of the egg’s good stuff – iron, folate and vitamins.
According to Harvard, dietary cholesterol found in egg yolk does not translate into bad cholesterol for your heart. Things have really changed and it’s good to keep updated on latest research.
How Long Does It Last?
Refrigerate assembled containers for up to 5 days. I used these meal prep containers.

Hello,
Tried to watch the video, get interrupted with nonstop ads, and then another video pops up. Tried restarting several times, but the same thing happens. Any tips on how to watch the full video? Thanks
Yes, I can help. So if you are trying to watch a video inside the recipe card after one ad plays video should play uninterrupted. If it’s a sidebar video player (pop up), after 20 seconds or so 2 buttons will appear. Press Stay and you will keep watching same video. If you don’t press it, it automatically takes you to the next video. Hope this helps.
Could you Freeze the meals? Would it hurt the flavor, or anything?
I wouldn’t recommend it because pico de gallo and veggies will be soggy upon thawing.
Thanks, Olena …I will make it tomorrow and use Greaves chilli sauce.
Loved it! I used all egg whites and added jalapeno the veg mix.
