  • Drain the eggs and immediately fill the pot with cold water and ice cubes. Once the eggs are cool enough to handle, peel and set aside. (store any extra eggs in an airtight container to use later in the week).

Turkey Bacon

  • Pre-heat skillet to medium high. Heat slices while turning them every minute to ensure uniform browning, until golden brown.

Oatmeal

  • Place oatmeal, chicken broth, and water in a small saucepan and cook over medium-heat for 5-6 minutes or until most of the liquid as been absorbed and oats are softened, stirring occasionally.

  • Add an ice cube to the oats before slowly stirring in the egg whites. It’s important that its' are not scorching hot or the egg whites will scramble.

  • Slowly stir in the egg whites and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Do this slowly over a low-medium heat, so the egg whites temper and become nice and creamy. You will know the oats are done because they will nearly double in size and will be super fluffy and creamy.
