Start your day with a filling breakfast. But don't trash your carb-count. This is diabetic friendly.

Serving Size: 2
Main Ingredient: Eggs
Categories: Breakfast, Brunch, Sandwiches, Simple - Easy, Quick, Saute, Low Fat, Vegetarian, Diabetic, Low Sugar

-= Ingredients =-
1/2 cup Egg Substitute
1/2 cup Low-fat cottage cheese
1 tablespoon Soy protein powder
~~ -- Non-stick spray -- ~~
2 strips Turkey bacon ; - cooked & crumbled
1 teaspoon Parsley ; - or cilantro, chopped
1 large Low Carb Tortilla
1/4 cup Salsa ; - Choose your heat level

-= Instructions =-
Place the cottage cheese in a tea strainer and allow it to drain excess liquid.
Cut a tortilla in half and place each half on a plate.
Blend the egg substitute with the soy protein then add in the cottage cheese.
Scramble this in a sprayed pan until it starts to set. Add in the crumbled bacon and stir in the parsley.

When the eggs have set place 1/2 of the mixture on each tortilla. Placing it slightly to one side of center makes the next step easier.

Put a spoonful of salsa on top of the eggs then roll the tortilla into a cone shape. Put the rest of the salsa on the top as a garnish. Sprinkle with more cilantro (or green onion) if you wish.

Serve immediately.

I hadta bump this thread up in hopes someone would have more recipes to share. I'm gonna make this one--thanks Jo! I also see a coupla others I'm gonna try.

I forgot about this one till I was messin' around, reading past threads. I don't remember if we have a low calorie thread or not, but I think we have a Weight Watcher recipe one. Do you guys think it would be easier to have a sticky titled RECIPES, then have the different threads under there? Just a suggestion. What do you think--good idea, bad idea--no idea??
Hugs,
LS
