These low-calorie, low-fat egg white bites make a quick weekday breakfast and they're equally as convenient for midday snacks. In order not to waste egg yolks and to save time, I like to use a carton of liquid egg whites. Egg whites tend to be rubbery, so adding in the cottage cheese helps make them creamier. You can store extras in the freezer and reheat as needed.

Garlic and Herb Lamb
A quick and easy rosemary rub that truly draws out the succulent flavor of lamb. Works on chops or leg of lamb.
Maple Breakfast Sausage
Homemade maple sausage made with ground pork and seasonings. Great cooked in crumbles for biscuits and gravy, or in patties for breakfast sandwiches or eggs Benedict. I like to premake a large batch and freeze the patties, then just take out a few the night before.
Crab Omelet
Crab and egg go very well together in this delightful crab omelet. Fresh crab meat is best but if you can't find it, use canned.
