How To Make Tasty Scrambled Eggs Recipes

High protein scrambled eggs recipes in only 8 minutes

On today’s episode of Live Lean TV, I’m sharing one of my favorite tasty scrambled eggs recipes, that can be made in just 8 minutes.

If you want to live the lean lifestyle, you need to make healthy eating a priority during your day.

Regardless of how busy you are, I’m showing you how to put together a high quality protein breakfast recipe, in a short period of time.

Many Live Lean TV viewers have asked for ideas on how to cook fast, healthy, and high protein breakfast recipes.

The first thing I always recommend is eggs.

Unfortunately when I mention this, the majority of people immediately “think” eggs take too long.

Not anymore.

On today’s Brad’s Cookbook segment, I’m showing you how to put together one of my healthy, fast, and quick, high protein scrambled eggs recipes for breakfast.

This breakfast contains loads of high quality, muscle building protein, as well as appetite suppressing healthy fats.

I’m talking about approximately 20 grams of protein, with no sugar.

How do you think that compares to your sugar filled box of cereal?

Nice trade in my opinion.

This quick recipe will allow you to get the boxed cereal out of your diet

Cereal is probably enemy number two or three when it comes to processed foods.

Get processed cereal out of your diet and replace with this healthy Mexican scrambled eggs recipe.

I’m going to show you how to make scrambled eggs in less than 8 minutes.

But you may be saying to yourself, “But Brad, you already have some of the ingredients diced up. I don’t have enough time to do that in the morning”.

Well guess what?

Here’s a meal prep hack for you

You don’t have to dice up these ingredients every morning.

I dice up these ingredients maybe 1-2 times per week.

For example, if I’m using diced onion in a recipe, I will dice up one or two onions during that time, then I’ll store the onion in Tupperware, so it’s ready to go.

Then the next day, I’ll go to the fridge and it’s already diced up.

All I need to do is throw it in the pan to fry it up.

It’s that simple

Rather than prepping ingredients for just one meal, prep your ingredients in bulk, so they are ready to add to other meals.

Another option is buying a cheap mini food processor.

Here’s a link to a good one that costs around $35.

You can simply add a full onion, press the chop button, and it’s diced up in less than five seconds.

It’s a very good investment for quick food prep.

Quick note on the ingredients and cooking tips:

• For more protein and healthy fat, use 4 whole eggs instead of 1 egg and 1/2 cup egg whites.
• Don’t forget to add the chili powder to give it the Mexican spice.
• Coconut oil is a very healthy oil, but you can also use avocado oil for your cooking oil.
• The sliced avocados are another great source of healthy fat and flavor.
• In addition to the avocados, the delicious herb, cilantro, also adds another dash of green.
• The tomatoes give it a nice contrast in color.
• Make sure you cook the eggs over medium heat as you don’t want to cook them over high heat.

That’s it.

And to prove that this healthy, high protein Mexican scrambled eggs recipe is quick to make, set your timer to track how long it takes.

I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

Time in!

Here are the healthy ingredients and quick instructions on how to make this tasty Mexican scrambled eggs recipe for breakfast, or for any meal of the day.

4. Next add the diced onions to the heated coconut oil and allow the onions to heat up for 1-2 minutes, and sizzle until they are soft, translucent, and smelling incredible.
5. Pour the egg and chili powder mixture on top of the onions and cook over medium heat.
6. Once the eggs begin to set after 1-2 minutes, scramble them up, while breathing in the incredible aroma of the chili powder and onions.
7. Next, add in the diced tomato, which will add some nice color.
8. Once the eggs are cooked throughly, remove the scrambled eggs mixture from the pan, and add them to a plate.
