Breakfast Veggie Casserole..TASTY!!!

Made something different for breakfast this moring and it was very tasty according to Brent so here is the recipe:

Heat over to 400 degrees
Cooking time: 20 minutes

Mix 2 lg. eggs and 2 egg whites in bowl, I added green peppers, mushrooms, and yellow onion finely chopped (you could do a variety of vegtables and add ham or bacon if you wanted), salt and pepper and 2 Tbsp of low-fat cheese in bowl.

Spray (2) ramekins with cooking spray and then cut two circles of bread out of whole wheat bread and place in the bottom of the ramekin.  Distribute mixture into ramekins evenly and place in oven for 20 minutes.

I hope you enjoy! Melissa :-)

28 Day Bootcamp Challenge

Good Morning!!!

I just completed "Day 5" of the Sparkpeople.com bootcamp challenge videos.  They are only 10 minutes long and you just add cardio before or after to get in 30-40 minutes of exercise a day.  I really like them so I thought I would share the link.

Have a great FRIDAY!!!

Wow! Did 2010 Already Come and Go? Welcome 2011!

Hello!

We decided to start a blog this year! I am a couple of day's behind but here we go! :-)

I cannot believe that 2011 is here!  The older I get the quicker time flys!  Brent and I have so many things that happened in 2010 to be thankful for, I just do not know if 2011 can top it but we are going to try!  I have a few New Year resolutions that I am going to work on so hopefully....I can be successful at them.

1.) Improve my health (hopefully get Brent in on the action as well)
      ---first action starting tomorrow...give up Diet D.P. :-/
2.) Spend more time with friends and family
3.) Save more money!

I hope everyone had a safe and happy New Year's! I look forward to sharing some of our family adventures with you!

:-) & <3, Melissa
