Olivia’s Breakfast Tour

Hi lovelies!!!  I know this has taken WAY too long to post….but, better late than never. J  After many requests Hannah and I decided to film some of our “typical” meals throughout the day.  Up first…Breakfast!

We all know breakfast is the most important meal of the day.  Even if my day gets crazy I know I’ve given myself the best beginning with a healthy breakfast with my family, always do the same for my husband and for my one year old baby, he eats the same as we do and at this age boys start talking so he asks me for our healthy snacks at breakfast.

Here are the ingredients you will need for this recipe:

1 cup egg whites (or as many as you want from separated eggs)
3 Tbsp chopped white onion
1 cup chopped baby bella mushrooms
½ cup sliced grape tomatoes
1 cup baby spinach
cooking spray of your choice
1 cup sliced berries

Let us know what you think of these types of “cooking” videos.  If you all like them we can do more!  Hannah and I both LOVE to cook and would love to share more recipes and tips with you.  Also, let me know what you eat for breakfast…I’m always looking for new ideas!  Stay tuned for what’s next….LUNCH!

Health and Happiness!
