Breakfast Meal Prep



INGREDIENTS:

12 ounces russet potatoes, diced*
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
8 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup reduced fat shredded Mexican blend cheese
4 slices bacon*
12 ounces broccoli florets, about 2-3 cups


DIRECTIONS:


  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat with nonstick spray.
  • Place potatoes in a single layer onto the prepared baking sheet. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, garlic and thyme; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Gently toss to combine.
  • Place into oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp; set aside.
  • Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add eggs whisking, until they just begin to set; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Continue cooking until thickened and no visible liquid egg remains, about 3-5 minutes. Top with cheese; set aside.
  • Add bacon to the skillet and cook until brown and crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Place broccoli florets into a steamer or colander set over a pan of boiling water. Cover and steam for 5 mins, or until cooked through and vibrant green.
  • Place potatoes, eggs, bacon and broccoli into meal prep containers.

Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon sugar 2 teaspoons baking powder 6 tablespoons Earth Balance (vegan margarine), cut into  medium sized pieces 3/4 cup non-dairy milk Directions: Preheat your oven to 400. In a medium bowl combine the flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder.  With your fingers or a pastry cutter cut in the Earth Balance pieces until they are the size of peas. Take 1 tablespoon of milk out of the 3/4 cup and set it aside. Pour the rest of the milk over the flour and stir gently with a spatula until it comes together. Pour the dough onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it's not super sticky. Pat it out gently to 1" thick. Fold the dough over itself and pat it out to 1" thick again. Repeat twice to fold 3 times.  This needs to be done very gently! Pat it like you're playing patty cake with a baby. No smooshing. After the third fold pat the dough to 3/4" thick, and cut out your biscuits. Don...
