Hide n' Seek Trash Bags

As I was changing out the garbage this morning I thought it might be fun to share a quick time saving tip. How many of you out there hide or store the fresh trash bags in the bottom of the garbage can? I've been doing this for years and it's such a handy idea! It saves time and steps to the pantry. In addition, if you have other family members doing chores, it might encourage them to complete the task if it's more convenient!

I just got a new box of garbage bags. It still doesn't take up that much room in the bottom. Trust me I'm able to fill them to the top!

Try these Glad bags I got last time. I was impressed. They have a force flex which has kept things from tearing out the sides and spilling randomly before I make it to the dumpster. They also have an odor shield. They were a few pennies more than the regular box but well worth it as I don't have to take out the trash as often. Think of all the wasted trash bags when you must remove them half full because the odor is so pungent! Ick!
I see they also come in vanilla scent... I might try those next time :) What tips or tricks do you guys think are the bomb? Do share!!

Breakfast Egg Roll

Just a quick post today.  Making fast healthy meals can be challenging. Especially thinking of new ideas to keep your taste buds engaged! Here's a really quick idea you can toss together in a matter of minutes. Minimal ingredients and fits within healthy in my book ;-)

Ingredients:
3 egg whites
1 whole egg
1 Lt. Italian Flatout bread
baby spinach
sprinkle of cheddar cheese
salt and pepper to taste
non-stick spray

First separate you eggs into a bowl (I missed taking pics of that) I do the half shell method. I do usually do this over a bowl though in case one of those buggers slips outta the shell into the bowl on me!

I use a 3/1 ratio as I like to get a little fat in the mix. I also like some of the flavor of the whole egg in there. It's totally up to you. If you use all egg whites try eating a few almonds with your meal. Those are a great source of healthy fat.

Spray your pan with non-stick spray (like Pam) and scramble up your eggs. Shake, shake a little salt and pepper. I sprinkled on a little shredded cheese too. Whatever type I had in the freezer (not sure it was cheddar honestly). About a teaspoon. Let it melt.

While all that was happening I got out the following:

One flat bread. Flavor: Light Italian Herb. Ammmmaaaazing!!!!  They have 90 cals a a piece, 6 carbs, no sugar, and 9 g of fiber! I know right! :o I've been eating these for years and I just love them for wraps and flat bread pizza.

Again with the baby spinach. I seriously love this stuff. It's so good for you. And a bag goes so far!

Slide your melty cheezed eggs right on top of that healthy baby spinach.

Roll the flatbread up.. cut.. and it's a wrap! (just like the movies, lol)
Yes.. I see the paper plate.. today I add to my carbon footprint in a big way.
