Cheesy Spinach Melt: No Excuses Healthy Breakfast in Only 3-Minutes

If you’re short on time for breakfast, yet very serious about your body transformation, you need to be thinking outside the breakfast cereal box and/or fast food drive thru for the “healthiest” thing you can find on the menu.

My recipe for the Cheesy Spinach Melt is cooked in the microwave and done in only 3-minutes (including prep time). Make it at home or pack up the ingredients, take it to work, and cook it up there like I did. If you tell me you don’t have time to eat healthy, you bettah be thinking again.

Ingredients:

2 Eggsvery huge handful of fresh spinach leavessprinklings of the Extra Sharp Cheddar cheese

Directions:

Crack eggs into microwave safe bowl and beat ‘em up.Heap in your very huge handful of spinach leaves and mix it around. Make sure all of the spinach is saturated by the egg mixture.Place bowl in microwave and cook for 2-minutes. (adjust time if necessary, depending on your microwave)Take bowl out, add your sprinklings of Cheddar cheese (but don’t be too greedy with the cheeses), then return to the microwave for 15-seconds of cheesy melting-ness.That’s it. You’re done. Now eat it up.

Ooo-la-laaa! It was delicious.

So I don’t wanna hear about you eating crap for breakfast (including bagels) because you didn’t have time for something better. Your body transformation requires you to make time. Even if it means you have only 3-minutes to spare, you can eat healthy with the Cheesy Spinach Melt.

booyah!

My Homemade Knockoff of the KFC Cheesy Bacon Bowl

Is it just me, or is the TV is trying to stuff the new KFC Cheesy Bacon Bowl commercial down our throats? I was in the kitchen cooking when I heard that dang commercial playing for the 1,567th time.

That’s when I realized I had all the ingredients on hand to make my own homemade knockoff of the Bacon Cheesy Bowl. I didn’t overthink it. I just grabbed stuff to throw the meal together really fast.

This is what I used:

I’ve never had a real KFC Cheesy Bacon Bowl (and absolutely never will) but I considered my homemade version something I could sink my tooth into since I’m the one controlling the ingredients and portions.

My KFC Cheesy Bacon Bowl Knockoff

Mashed potatoes and cheesiness is a great combo. When you throw in corn, gravy and quality fake chicken, it gets better. But it’s that damn bacon that really put this homemade knockoff over the edge.

As you can see from the pic, I barely used any bacon, but hot dang if that little bit of bacon didn’t make this meal a winner. The bowl I used was baby-ish in size, so this dish, with its small portions of potato-carbs and gravy-cheesiness, didn’t have the power to screw up my day of good health.

I had fun making this knockoff. Let’s maybe see what else I can do. Whacha think?
