Friday Fun Day

I have several recipes to share today!  So let's start with breakfast recipes and work our way to dinner.

Strawberry Banana Oatmeal Waffles

Ingredients:
1 ripe banana
2 cups oatmeal
2 cups water/milk
144g of strawberries (topping)

Servings: 4
Calories: 164

This recipe is super simple! All you do is mix your ingredients and pour batter on your griddle.  You can do any fruit.  Typically I would add blueberries to the batter but I was out. 

Ham and Egg Cups

Ingredients:
12 slices of ham/turkey
12 eggs
1/2-1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
salt/pepper to taste

Servings: 12
Calories: 114

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

 

First, spray a muffin tin with non stick cooking spray

 

Line each cup with a piece of ham

 

Add your egg (you can scramble if you want but I don't)

 

Add salt/pepper

 

Sprinkle cheese on top

 

Bake 20 minutes

 

Let them cool and then place in a gallon size ziplock back.  These keep good for five days in the refrigerator.

 

 

 

 

Skinny Strawberry Cheesecake

 

Ingredients:

2 Tbsp. Sugar free Fat free Cheesecake jello mix

1 cup of greek yogurt

1/4 cup of milk

144g strawberries for topping

This is AMAZING if you love cheesecake and need a fix but are trying to watch your calories.  Let's face it...cream cheese is NOT your thighs best friend.  To make this just mix all your ingredients together, top with sliced strawberries, and refrigerate for at least an hour.

 

Chicken Fajita Kabobs

 

Ingredients:

1 green bell pepper

1 yellow bell pepper

1 orange bell pepper

1/2 large onion

10-12 ounces chicken breast

Marinade

6 Kabobs

 

Marinade:

2 Tbsp. Olive Oil

1 Tbsp. fresh lime juice

2 Tbsp. Chili powder

1 tsp. cumin

1/2 tsp. garlic powder

1/2 tsp. dried oregano

1/4 tsp. salt

At our house we love anything and everything Mexican.  Tacos, Quesadillas, Enchiladas, Fajitas, and so on.  To make this requires a little bit of prep time.  You will need to soak your skewer sticks (if wooden) for 2 hours and marinate your veggies and chicken at least this long as well.  I take a gallon size ziplock bag and throw in all my veggies, chicken, and marinade.  Refrigerate.  Assemble.  Grill.  We like to add beans, tomatoes, salsa, guacamole, shredded cheese, and tortillas with this meal.  SO GOOD!  Just watch out for all these little extra things if you are watching your calories. ;)

 

Me and James Jr. had a great Friday cooking, walking, and getting baths!!!
