This recipe uses AllWhites®, which are a convenient, fat-free, cholesterol-free, and low-calorie source of lean protein.

My workout routine has been pretty consistent for several years now. I work out four to five times per week. I do a mix of cardio, weightlifting, and hot yoga. With spring on the rise, I will be turning my attention back to outdoor running. The winter has been so cold and harsh here in Kansas City! I cannot wait to get back into my outdoor running schedule.
I am a morning person. I function so much better in the wee hours of the morning than I do at night. Morning workouts are so much better for me. I typically work out at 5:30 AM for 45 minutes to an hour. Those morning workouts leave me starving! A nutritious post-workout breakfast with a lot of protein is crucial.
AllWhites contains 100% real liquid egg whites. Each serving contains 5 grams of protein, 0 grams of fat and only 25 calories, making it perfect for post-workout fuel. This frittata recipe has 26 grams of protein. That is definitely great for my macros!
This recipe is simple to make and should be easy for you to incorporate into your healthy living regimen.

I am so NOT a morning person. I'm the one that needs one of those flying alarm clocks you have to chase down to turn off. I usually do my workouts around noon (except I still behind today) - but I love fritatta's afterward. Lots of protein 🙂
