Food, Fitness & Summo' Food

So last night I cooked food for the week after dance class. I ended up making some egg muffins (keeshes, whatever), salmon and rice. Nothing too exciting. I also chopped up all my veggies so they're ready to roll on the fly when I am super hungry. Which is damn near all the time really.

So, the steps on

How to Make Tobin's Protein Egg Muffins

are simply as follows...

Ingredients:

  • Fist full | Greens! (Kale, spinach, broccoli...)
  • You're the judge | Additional veggies (Red bell peppers, mushrooms...)
  • You're the judge | Cheese (don't get crazy, still being healthy here)
  • Table Spoon | Seasoning (I used garlic and pepper)
  • You're the judge | Meat (super optional. That shit takes forever to digest and also comes from poorly raised/handled farm animals)
  • 18-24 | Eggs, obviously (the glue of all this awesomeness)
 

So, first things first!

  1. Start cracking eggs and chopping veggies.
  2. Then, preheat the oven to 350
  3. In one bowl, mix the seasoning, eggs and cheese
  4. In another, mix ALL those veggies. And meat, if you're dumb.
  5. Usually, I beat the eggs and mix in EVERYTHINGZ into one bowl. But this time, as you'll see I have first poured 1/2way full cups into the cupcake pan, then tucked the veggies and cheese in with a spoon right in the middle. It's important you fill the cupcake cups halfway rather than full, because when you put the veggies in there AND the egg rise with heat, you're hosed. - Anyways, get all the sexiness in the cupcake pan you can manage for the first round. You may have two batches. Or you can SUPER TIGHTLY Tupperware your leftover yolks & veggies for the morning or whatever.
Bake for 25-30 minutes. You'll know they're ready by sticking a toothpick in and pulling it out. If it has chunks of yolk on it, you're a genius, they're not ready. I like to wait till they have a slight brown at the edge.

Finished product!
 

Ta-daaaa!

 

 

Now, check out this awesome soup I made out of carrots, kale, spinach, mushrooms and whole grain angel hair pasta! Boiled in vegetable broth. It was the cheapest thing ever and all organic.
