Southwest Eggs with Black Beans!

Every week I meal prep a half of a pound of beans, and on this particular week my bean of choice was black beans! Eggs, beans, cheese, avocado, and Mexican spices... What an absolutely perfect combination all on one plate. This simple breakfast was not only delicious, it also delivered all of the protein and fiber that I needed to start my day off strong!

One of the ways that I love to use meal prepped beans is definitely to add them to my eggs. If you haven't yet tried adding beans to your eggs, I absolutely encourage you to give it a try. They add the perfect starchy bite, and they really make a basic egg breakfast so much more satisfying.

I make delicious and satisfying high protein, high fiber, low calorie meals!

When I hit my 50s and went into menopause, it felt like my body had been taken over by an alien! Despite cooking at home and eating whole, clean foods, I started gaining weight, felt exhausted all the time, and—let’s be honest—I was mad at everyone!

I found myself visiting doctors often, desperate to feel healthy again.

Everything changed when I discovered the power of prioritizing protein at every meal and lifting heavy weights to build muscle! I finally feel like myself again!

I make delicious and satisfying high protein, high fiber, low calorie meals that work if you are in a calorie deficit, looking for protein, trying to build and retain muscle or just want some inspiration in the kitchen for what to cook and eat!

I can’t wait for you to join me in my kitchen!
