Hints:
Starting off the day with a protein rich meal like this one can help to prevent cravings later in the morning.
Eggs are a source of lutein, a nutrient that is necessary to help prevent age-related macular degeneration, a disease that causes vision loss in the elderly.
In this recipe, reduce the amount of saturated fat and add fiber at the same time by substituting 1/4 cup chopped sun dried tomatoes for the bacon.
Experiment with flavors of bacon: peppered, applewood smoked, etc.
Add 1 Tbsp. of fresh sliced scallions to the end of step 2 for additional flavor,color and texture.
