I like to make these on Sunday and then eat them throughout the week for breakfast. They are easily reheated in the microwave. 

Ingredients:
olive oil spray
1/2 medium onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 medium tomato, diced
6 oz turkey kielbasa, diced
2 cups baby spinach
5 large whole eggs, beaten
4 large egg whites
1/3 cup fat free milk
1/3 cup all purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
3 oz shredded cheddar cheese

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a nonstick muffin pan with olive oil spray.
Spray a non-stick skillet with olive oil and heat on medium.  Sauté onions until soft, and then add the garlic, tomato, and kielbasa. Sauté for another 5 to 7 minutes. Add spinach and cook until wilted, about 1 minute.  Set aside.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk the eggs, egg whites, milk, flour, salt and pepper until smooth. Add the cheese and cooked kielbasa mixture to the bowl and mix well. Pour into the prepared muffin pan and bake for 28 to 30 minutes, or until firm. Serving size is two muffin-sized quiches. 

 

These can be frozen and reheated later.

For the Fish:
4-6 Tilapia Filets
1 T olive oil
1 T fresh lime juice
1/2 t cumin
1/2 t chili powder
1/2 t paprika
Flour tortillas

For the sauce:
1/4 cup sour cream
2 t of the liquid from a can of chilis in adobo sauce

fire roasted corn (can roast your own in the oven or on the grill if you wish)
shredded lettuce or cabbage
chopped cilantro
avocado

Directions:
Preheat your grill to medium high heat.

Whisk together the olive oil, 1 T lime juice cumin, chili powder and paprika. Put the fish filets in gallon ziplock bag, and pour the marinade over the fish. Let it marinade for 15 minutes.

Grill the fish for about 3 minutes on each side until it easily flakes.

This is a quick recipe to make on a busy night, but it has the appearance of a "fancy" dish. If you don't want to use the wine, you can substitute chicken broth.

Ingredients:
4 (6 oz) boneless skinless chicken breasts
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 Tbsp olive oil (I just use my olive oil mister bottle to cut back on the oil)
1 clove garlic, finely minced
1/4 cup white wine (or substitute low-sodium chicken broth)
1/2 cup heavy cream (could also sub half-and-half or evaporated milk)
2 Tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp chopped fresh thyme, plus more for garnish
1/2 tsp dried sage
1 tsp honey

Directions:
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season both sides of chicken with salt and pepper. Add chicken to hot oil in skillet and cook 5 - 6 minutes per side until cooked through (chicken should register 165 degrees in thickest part of chicken on an instant read thermometer). Transfer to a plate, cover with foil to keep warm.

Add garlic to remaining oil in pan and saute 10 seconds, then add wine or chicken broth, cream, mustard, thyme and sage and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened slightly, about 1 - 2 minutes. Stir in honey and (if needed) season lightly with salt. Serve chicken with sauce over top and garnish with additional thyme leaves if desired.
