Egg White Pita Scrambler!

...and no, that's not chicken.

Ingredients:
1 Joseph's Pita
3 Egg Whites (or 2 whole eggs, if you prefer)
Cayenne Pepper
Salt and Pepper

Instructions:
1. Spray cooking pan with non-stick cooking spray.
2. Place egg whites in pan and scramble. Sprinkle with cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.
3. While the eggs are cooking, place pita in toaster for 30-45 seconds or until hot to touch.
4. Cut pita in half. When eggs are done, stuff scrambled eggs into each half of the pita and serve immediately.

Serving suggestions: If you don't enjoy a little spice, omit the cayenne pepper.  You could also add a small amount of diced deli ham and cheese and/or some diced peppers and onions!

A beyond easy breakfast that's quick, delicious, and nutritious. Using this particular pita bread instead of regular bread drastically reduces the amount of carbohydrates and fat (and subsequently calories) to this meal.  They're also loaded with heart healthy ingredients and are a great fix for the starchy/carb cravings that often accompany weight loss. You likely either love, can't find, or haven't heard of them. They're usually found in the deli section of grocery stores.  At a delicious 50 Calories per pita, I'd say it's a must try.
