Breakfast of Champions

I am the queen of running late in the mornings. It's the only time I feel that being late is acceptable because honestly, mornings are the worst. So, I found this recipe on the Skinny Ms. Pinterest page and tweaked it just a tad for my own tastes. It's healthy, and delicious! The best part is that it's all protein, so it sticks with me until lunch.

I love this so much, that I had to share. It takes two seconds to throw together and I can reheat it at work. Yes, I eat at work because it would require me to get up 10 minutes earlier to eat breakfast at home. Sleep is far too valuable.

Egg, Spinach & Feta Cups
Serves 4

1 whole egg
8 egg whites (I normally use the carton egg whites for convenience)
1/4 cup reduced fat feta
2 cups fresh baby spinach, torn in pieces
Kosher salt, to taste
Pepper, to taste

Use non-stick spray inside 4 ramekins. Layer the spinach on the bottom of each. Beat together all other ingredients. Pour into ramekins and bake at 350 degrees for about 20-22 minutes.
*They will puff up while baking and then deflate a little after.
