The Almighty Egg

So today it's time to take a look at something very important: The almighty egg! Eggs are absoluteluy amazing ingredient packed with proteins. As a person who does a lot of sports I've learned that egg is basically my best friend giving me loads of fuel and energy. So I've developed a good few egg recipes and besides normal eggs I use a lot of egg whites. As a tip for people watching thier weight I can indeed tell, that egg whites are nearly zero in calories but very filling and nutricious. 

Here are a few super simple recipes I use and of course googling around the internet will show you dozens of other great egg recipes! If you find something that look especially delicious let me know :)

FRITTATA
Egg whites
Soy cream
Basil
Spinach
Pepper
Cherry tomato
Potato (you can also leave this out)
Lean bacon medallions
German salami company pepperoni (or similar low calorie sausage)

INSTRUCTIONS
Start by slicing the potato into thin slices. Boil them quickly and fry on the pan until golden brown. You can also fry the bacon and sausage befrehand so they're nice and crispy. Whip the eggs, soy cream and seasoning together. Chop basil and spinach finely and add to the mix. Poor the mix to the pan, and throw everything else on top. Let cook under a lid on small heat until ready! 

RED BEET GOATS CHEESE OMELETTE
This omelette was inspired by leftover beet-goat cheese mix that I served earlier with a steak. Surprisingly it fits perfectly in an omelette as well :)
1 Beet root
Goats cheese
Spinach
Fresh Basil
Soy cream
Egg whites

INSTRUCTIONS
Chop beet root finely and mix with goat cheese. Mix soy cream and eggs and season to your taste. Pour the mix on the pan and fry for a few minutes until firm. Add the rest . When the cheese is starting to melt, flip one side over the other, let cook for half a minute, and serve! 

OMELETTE WITH COLD SMOKED SALMON, HUMUS & FETA CHEESE

Egg whites
Soy yoghurt
Humus
Cold smoked salmon
Feta cheese

Warning, this is a very heavy dinner!

BREAKFAST EGG MUFFINS

Peanut Butter Fudge

This time I'm serving a very special treat! I got this recipe from one of my favorite Finnish blogs; http://jonna1983.fitfashion.fi.
This chocolate bar has only 4 ingredients and very little sugar and carbs, so it's a dream come true to a diabetic. Surely there's a good few calories in it but even so it's still a 100 times better than the crap they sell at shops. I counted from back cover of a box of chocolates I got for christmas that it has 15 different ingredients :O 

RECIPE

50 gr Raw cacao butter

1/3 cup Peanut butter (cashew butter in the original recipe)

2 tbsp Sweet freedom  (OR Agave, honey, stevia, maple syrup)

3 tbsp Raw cacao powder

Pinch of Salt (gives that little omph to PB). 

DIRECTIONS

• Melt the cacao butter in a water bath. I only have two sauce pans (still living like a student eh :D) so I boiled the water in the smaller one and placed the bigger one on top of it. The cocoa butter melts in a few minutes.
• Mix in the PB and stir until smooth
• Mix in the fruit syrup and cacao powder
• Pour the mix into a small flat tray that's lined with a parchment paper 
• EXTRA: I threw in a handful of gluten free rice crispies for some yummy crispiness :)
• Put in freezer for about 30 minutes and you'll get a perfectly sumptuous chocolate bar! 

Mix poured into the tray before going into freezer

Mmmh, peanut butter!
