Santa Fe Breakfast Taco

Now that I have discovered the wonderful world of Egg Beaters and low-cal tortillas, the sky is my breakfast limit!
Ingredients:
1 Mission Carb Balance Whole Wheat small tortilla (120 calories)
1/4 cup egg product (30 calories)
1/4 cup red or green pepper, diced (10 calories)
1/4 cup onions, diced (17 calories)
1/4 tsp minced garlic (1 calorie)
2 tbs salsa (approx 5 calories)
1 ounce honey ham (30 calories)
You could add cheese, I suppose, but it doesn't really need it.

Directions:
Spray your pan with cooking spray and "I can't believe it's not butter" spray. Saute onions, peppers, and garlic until tender. Add egg product and keep stirring until eggs are thoroughly cooked. Add ham and salsa, warming through. Scoop everything into a tortilla and throw the tortilla on a pan (you can use the same one, if you don't mind a little stickiness) and toast it on both sides like a quesadilla until golden brown. Transfer to plate, serve warm.

Swiss Dijon Hamwich

I got the idea to use english muffins from The Biggest Loser Family Cookbook. I love ham and you will see a lot of onions in my recipes. Mmmmm..... onions. I've been putting together a bunch of different hot sandwiches lately with some of my favorite ingredients.Ingredients:
1 regular English Muffin* (120 calories)
2 ounces honey ham, sliced (60 calories)
1 cup raw onions, sliced or slivered (67 calories)
1 tsp Kraft Free Mayo (4 calories)
1 tsp dijon mustard
1 ounce shredded swiss cheese (45 calories)
1/2 roma tomato (9 calories)

Directions:
In non-stick pan, spray cooking oil and "I can't believe it's not butter" spray. Add onions and sautee until tender. Add ham and stir until ham is warmed through and beginning to brown. Toast the English Muffin and spread Free Mayo on one half and dijon mustard on the other half. Scoop onions and ham into a small mound in the pan, top with cheese and allow to melt. Scoop onions, ham, and cheese onto English Muffin, top with tomatoes and serve warm.
