Or I will make a frittata on Sunday night and reheat portions thoughout the week using the same basic ingredients. After heating, I sprinkle fresh chopped chives (I cut with scissors) on top as that seems to brighten it up.
I use a combination of 1 egg, egg whites, and then almond milk to add more body, maybe with a tbsp of butter or margarine. My prep & cooking time in the morning is no more than 3 minutes, usually much less.
I eat out of a reusable plastic container, usually while on the way to my workout. Easy to throw away if I don't have somewhere to quickly wash it but usually less messy than eating a wrap.
My other breakfast option usually involves some leftover black beans mixed with chiles and whatever chopped vegetables I have on hand. As with the eggs, I just reheat in a plastic container in the morning. A quick grab & go breakfast without settling on junk.
A Spanish frittata with potatoes is a good idea, might give that a go - make it ahead and nuke. Like the idea of the black beans with some veggies, maybe tomatoes and cilantro for a mexican kick -might add a dollop of yogurt too in my version. Thanks!
I do use a plastic container - and I eat my wraps with a knife and fork so minimum mess! (and why yes, I do look ridiculous doing so I am sure, but my clothes stay clean!)
