Breakfast . . . (if only I had an appetite!)

· Small low fat tortilla (approx ~ 45 calories)
· One wedge Laughing Cow Light Cheese (approx ~ 35 calories)
· 2 medium egg whites – (approx ~ 34 calories) or see http://www.twochicks.co.uk/

Beat the egg whites with a dash of seasoning. Heat an 8" saute pan. . Holding the pan away from the heat, spray with low fat cooking spray/oil. Pour in the egg whites. Do not stir. Reduce the heat to low, cover and let the eggs set. Grill the tortilla quickly on both sides. Remove to a warm plate and spread with the cheese. When the eggs are set, turn them out onto the tortilla, roll up and enjoy!

It is lovely . . . try it . . .
Egg whites have 70% less calories than whole eggs are Fat Free, Cholesterol Free, Low Carbohydrate Low GI, High Protein (the main protein in an eg is in the white) . . . I sound like a bloody egg advert !

Trust me it is fab . . . . a very very healthy omelette. I have dug out my George Foreman and dusted it down ready for some real action. So grilled chicken breast for tea ~ maybe some salsa in a soft tortilla wrap (poss salad and onion/tomato).

In fact I have just ordered a new style GF Frill with hot plate . . . I bought a ‘Jack Lalasne’ Power Juicer ~ great bit of kit but a devil to clean.

I'm not sure what is 'disgusting' about this tbh. Sounds perfectly acceptable to me. Many a saturday morning myself and Mr Phatmomma popped into wolverhampton and visited 'The Philly Flyer' and had a spinach wrap toasted with cooked bacon and egg in... Okay we shared a wrap, i could never finish my half so MR PM had it, but it was lush....

My latest delight is a Warburtons square wrap (slighly more meatier than regular tortillas) spread with a little tomato puree or passatta and then topped with low fat mature cheddar, ham, cooked mushrooms/cherry tomatoes and whatever else you have in the veg dept and then put in the oven for ten minutes till cheese has melted. In fact all the family n visitors love them.. delish xx

Its the egg whites Julie, ewwww, albumen.
I love tortilla wraps. and fajitas, or however you spell them.
At tesco you can get a gorgeous chicken and onion ready cooked dish which you can put on your wraps. Not too bad on the cals and carbs etc and I use low fat sour cream or yogurt with a salad as a bulking out thingy.
Its just the egg whites that make me go 'ewwwwwwwwwwwww'.
Im fine with solids now Kevin but not got much of an appetite at the moment (yipeeeeeee) never thought I would see the day when I said that lol.
