Wondering what to have for lunch? Have some egg salad!
This egg salad is creamy and savory and contains fresh herbs. And unlike regular egg salad, it doesn’t have mayonnaise.
Instead, it contains Greek yogurt. Greek yogurt is rich in protein which keeps you satisfied.
It is also rich in calcium which is essential for healthy bones. It also contains probiotics that support a healthy immune system and digestive system.
As an added bonus, it is rich in iodine which supports thyroid health. This, in turn, supports a healthy metabolism.
To keep this little meal low in carbs, serve on lettuce leaves. Or if you like, you can serve it on some low-carb bread. This low-carb bread here contains zero net carbs, and it is high in protein too.

Meal prepping your breakfasts is another great way to avoid the breakfast drive-thru. Prep once, and you have your breakfasts set for the week.
These egg white bites are full of cheesy goodness. And the addition of spinach and bell peppers adds extra nutrition- your mom will be so proud of you.
Making them is quite easy. Place your egg whites, red bell pepper, cottage cheese, spinach, and seasonings in a bowl and whisk well.
Next, pour your egg mixture into muffin tins, and bake for about 25 minutes.
To prevent your egg white bites from sticking to your muffin tins, you’ll want to use some silicone baking cups. These ones here are pretty flexible, so you can quickly release the egg white bites.
Also, to keep your egg white bites tasting fresh longer, make sure you store them in some good-quality food storage containers. I recommend these glass containers here because they are safe for you and the environment.
However, if you prefer containers that are easier to carry around, these BPA-free plastic containers are an excellent alternative.

Having guests over for brunch? Serve them this Frittata.
It’s so pretty that you and your guests won’t want to eat it. And it tastes delicious.
The addition of the goat cheese really elevates this Frittata. Your guests will feel so special.
What I love most about this dish is its low sodium content. This is because you’re using goat cheese.
Besides being low in sodium, goat cheese contains more medium-chain fatty acids than cheese made from cow’s milk.
Medium-chain fatty acids are less likely to be stored as fat. This makes goat cheese a better option for you if you’re trying to lose weight.
Now that’s a win-win situation.
