Melty Cheese Omelette



Today we are going to show you how to make my personal favorite omelet blend. Eggs are awesome you can make so many various dishes with them on top of that, eggs are quick.

Ingredients:



(Option to add I go back and forth with this one)


For those seeking to understand what a dash, pinch and smidgen means in measurement form:

Cracking Some Eggs:

Take out a small bowl crack three eggs into the bowl. Feel free to remove the egg yolks if you would like to cut down on the fat, but I recommend leaving at least one yolk.


Now We Add the Seasonings:

Time to add the cheyenne pepper, paprika, turmeric, garlic and sweet basil to the eggs in the bowl. Once you are done grab a fork. You are going to take the fork and whisk the eggs, in turn blending the seasoning.

It’s Dicing Time:

Dice the cherry tomatoes up. You slice the onion up to be about the same amount as the cherry tomatoes. I like to do this while I’m cooking the eggs to save on time.

Set Up The Frying Pan:

Take out your Red Copper Pan or any frying pan you choose to use, nonstick is preferred. Spray cooking spray on the pan. You want to keep the flame on medium low. At this point you will add the beaten eggs.

Tomatoes and Onions:

As the eggs start to solidify this is the time you are going to add the tomatoes and onions to one side of the pan. Give it about another minute.

Cheese and Flip:

Lay the slices of cheese evenly across the tomatoes and onion side. Before the flip, you will need to loosen all the edges of the eggs on the pan. Once you have accomplished that you are ready to flip it. Take the side that doesn’t have the cheese slowly raise it up with a spatula. (I personally prefer thicker spatulas for this.  Once the egg half it’s up on the spatula you will quickly flip that side on top of the cheese side. Now that it is flipped and looking like an omelet use the spatula to loosen up under the omelet, cover and let it cook for another minute or two so the cheese can melt.

Final Touch:

The omelet is cooked now you might not get the flip part right the first few times, but it will always have the same great taste. The finally sprinkle some black pepper lightly across the top, Enjoy.

Maintaining Bodyweight


So you got to the weight that you want

First off congratulations on hitting your goal weight. If you haven’t already you should really take the time to let that sit in, awesome job. So you've gotten to the point that you truly feel comfortable with the weight that you are at. How are we going to keep it for good, is the question? This is how and you will be please to know, it's much easier to maintain than it was to lose or gain weight.

The Five Low, Five High

I like to call this the rule of five. Meaning five below your ideal weight or five above your ideal weight. Our weight fluctuates it will never be the same number. Once it goes above 5lbs or below 5 lbs you will know it’s time to take a little action again to get your weight back to it's ideal weight. 




Setting Up Macros to Not Gain

The weight on the scale will always move a little bite. If you aren’t trying to gain weight you need to set your calories to not gain or lose weight. A nice macro split of 50% Carbs 30% Protein and 20% Fat. This tends to be a really good start, once you know the right amount of calories you need to maintain weight.

Exercise the Same But Drop The Cardio

Personally I drop cardio when I’m maintaining. I feel cardio is best served as a tool for fat loss. If you use cardio all the time you won’t be able to utilize it in your fat loss arsenal if you will. When I am maintaining
I will still do my workouts the same way, minus the cardio. I generally don’t need to drop my calories despite the cardio leaving because I am maintaining at this moment not trying to lose weight.
