Equipment

Ingredients

3/4 cup fat-free-liquid egg substitute
1/8 teaspoon onion powder
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
3 tablespoons reduced-fat shredded Mexican cheese blend
2 tablespoons canned black beans, rinsed
1 tablespoon pickled jalapeño slices, chopped (or chopped green chiles)

Chopped fresh cilantro, if desired

Instructions

Spray a large microwavable mug with nonstick cooking spray. Pour in the liquid egg, onion powder, garlic powder and cumin. Mix together well using a fork.

Add 2 tablespoons cheese, black beans and jalapeños or chopped green chiles (if using) and stir to combine.
Microwave on HIGH for 1 minute, or until eggs are set. If additional time is needed, cook in small increments (15 or 30 seconds) until done.

5 PointsPlus (Old plan)

Top with your favorite salsa or pico de Gallo. If eating breakfast in a mug isn't your thing, you can easily remove this to a small plate.

Get your ingredients together the night before for an even quicker morning breakfast. Mix together the eggs and spices and store in an airtight container. The beans and jalapeños or chiles can be stored together. In the morning, the only thing you'll need to do is cook and enjoy!
