Crossfit Zone Diet Breakfast Sandwich Melt

1/2 pita bread, 1 egg (scrambled or fried), 1 oz (1/4 cup) of cheese, 1 oz sliced ham (11 small slices of ham,) serve with 1/2 apple and 3 macadamia nuts. I decided to make a "cheese melt" out of this sandwich since I had no apples or nuts. Also, for appearance sake only, I used two slices of bread. But usually for this recipe, you should get a pita pocket or one slice of bread only. Heat up the toast or bread while cooking the egg in a pan. I put 3/4 Tbs of light mayonnaise to give myself the fat I need to workout since I had no macadamia nuts. Then put slices of ham on the toast when ready, put the egg on top and sprinkle the cheese onto the egg, heat the toast again. and there you are! A breakfast sandwich melt!

Breakfast Quesadilla

Ready for some breakfast? Ditch the plain old cereal and milk and follow this recipe!  

This is a Crossfit Zone diet. I have recently been working out using Crossfit and P90X so I wanted to share some healthy recipe ideas to you guys! 

Ingredients: 1 corn tortilla, 1/4 cup black beans, 1/3 cup chopped onions, 1 chopped green/yellow/red pepper, 2 eggs (scrambled or fried), 1 oz (1/4 cup) cheese, 3 tbs avocado or guacamole. 

Cook the chopped onions and chopped peppers until browned. While it is cooking, make guacamole. If you don’t want guacamole, just use avocados. I will post up the Guacamole recipe after this post. Heat up the corn tortilla, either by wrapping it in damp paper towels and microwaving it, or heat up an ungreased pan and heat it up 10-15 seconds on each side. You may melt the cheese onto the tortilla if desired. I didn’t but that’s because I wanted the picture to look nice. :P Take off the browned chopped onions and peppers. If your tortilla wrap is big enough, put it on the wrap. Next, scramble or fry your eggs. If the wrap isn’t big enough, put the onions and peppers on the side with the drained black beans and scrambled eggs. Voila! There is a meal fit for a King (or Queen in my case)!
