SPAM! It's for breakfast!

I love Spam...I cannot help myself!!
I love that delicious concoction of canned meat, and I <3 it for breakfast!

While I love Spam it's not really the most nutritious thing to eat on a regular basis, BUT to ease my guilty cravings I have turned to..... Turkey Spam!

Stop looking at me like that.

It is actually very tasty. I promise.

Ingredients:

1 Red Bell pepper
1/4 c of Egg whites
1 egg
4 oz of Turkey Spam
Pam Non-stick Spray




Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Cut the bell pepper in half and then into quarter inch strips. I find that cutting them down to manageable strips lets me see how much bell pepper I really have to work with. I like to cut them down into small bite size pieces, but it is really a matter of opinion cut as large or as small as you like.

Slice up the spam into quarter inch pieces.




Spray pan with non-stick spray and saute bell pepper and spam for 5-8 minutes.

Remove the pepper and spam and place in a dish off to the side.

Measure out a 1/4 cup of egg whites, add egg into the mixture and beat thoroughly. Season with salt and pepper.




Pour egg mixture into the skillet and cook for a few minutes, which will allow the egg mixture to begin to set.

Generously spread the spam and pepper mixture into the eggs, and make sure to season generously with salt and pepper.

 Put skillet into the oven and allow to finish for 5-10 minutes.




Pull out your guilty pleasure breakfast and enjoy!




Makes one serving.

  1. I am so not a spam fan, but this actually sounds quite delish! I may have to give it a whirl.
