Rad Post Workout Egg White and Veggie Scramble

Today I came home from the gym STARVING!!  To remedy this, I went to one of my standards: Rad Post Workout Egg White and Veggie Scramble.  I paired mine with some fresh fruit and half a whole wheat english muffin.  The best thing about this recipe is you can substitute in any veggies you have in your fridge/freezer: onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, squash, sweet potatoes, kale, cabbage, etc. Your options are endless!  Below is what I had in the fridge today…



Ingredients:
  • 1-2 sprays of Olive Oil Cooking Spray
  • ½ cup Chopped Bell Peppers
  • 1 cup Chopped Spinach
  • ½ cup Sliced Zucchini
  •  ¾ cup Egg Whites (or the Whites from 4 Large Eggs)




Directions:

  • Place a small skillet on the stove and turn heat to medium, spray a small amount of Olive Oil Cooking Spray in the skillet.
  • Add the peppers and spinach to the pan and cook until slightly soft.
  • Add Zucchini to the pan and cook until slightly soft.

  • Add egg whites to pan.  Using a heat resistant rubber scrapper or a wooden spoon, scrape the eggs off the pan and toward the center.  Keep moving the eggs around until they are fully cooked.

  • Serve with hot sauce, salsa or just as is!
  • Enjoy!!

Introduction and Welcome

Hello internet world, we are the “Rad” family. After my husband and I got married we were on the Honeymoon diet for a little too long, and well, got fat.  One morning I woke up tired and fat for the last time.  Nothing fit that morning, so we decided to change the way we live.  Our diets changed significantly from eating out 5+ times a week to cooking at home most days and watching the ingredients we put in our bodies.  We started with an Advocare 24 Day Challenge and felt better than we ever had.  We had more energy and a smaller waist line!  We have continued with the Advocare products and most importantly continued with our healthy lifestyles.


This blog is dedicated to our everyday recipes and clean/healthy eating tips.  Hope you enjoy!
