Notes
Can also add extras – cheddar cheese, feta cheese, tomatoes, capsicum or fresh herbs. You can also replace bacon, with ham, mince, sausage etc.
Serve with mixed greens on the side drizzled with ACV or lemon juice & sea salt. Coming in at around 22g or protein, we would also have a SSH protein shake or bowl of natural yoghurt to bump us up over 30g of protein.
CARBS
This recipe is a little light on complex carbs, so add a piece of sourdough if you need the extra nutrition or you have a med to high training load.Â
