Well I have finally reach my first weight goal.  Even though the weight goal is just a by product of doing Paleo it was not my main goal.  My main goal is to just stay healthy and keep my stomach under control.  However to maintain progress and keep going I have set some weight goals and I have hit my first one since February.  That is good for me!  First goal -25 lbs.  Next goal will be another 25lbs lol.   I have been trying to find some new things to experiment with food wise however I have gotten in to a rhythm with items that I like that I have been stuck on them.  But have no fear I have been changing up the way I eat my eggs so you guessed it this is just a tip and trick to changing up eggs.

If you are anything like me you go through eggs like crazy.  I have posted previously about my Spanish Chorizo Tortilla but what do you do when you just get sick of eating regular plain eggs?  Well in my case I have come up with a really good idea.  Lately I have been on a chipotle kick, pretty much anything that I can put chipotle on the better.  So if you haven’t figured out where I am going with this, Chipotle on eggs is great!

This really isn’t a recipe just more of ideas to get eggs to taste different so you do not get sick of redundant meals.

In Miami there is a pretty traditional Cuban dish where they take a thin piece of steak (palomilla steak) cook that on a stove top in coconut oil or butter and then you fry an egg over easy or sunny side up and you serve it on top of the steak with some sauteed onions.

If you steak and eggs don’t do it for you how about a boiled egg, add some paprika, salt, pepper and a small sprinkle of cayenne pepper.  It is almost like a deviled egg just with out the mayo.  Really just small little changes to eggs can get you something that tastes really really good.

So in my normal life which consist of going to work 5 days a week, aka the daily grind I do not always get lavish things to eat for breakfast or lunch.  Now don’t get me wrong I enjoy pretty much everything I eat, its just not elaborate.  For example on most days I end up just eating 2 boiled eggs and if I am lucky I might add a piece of bacon but usually its just the plain old eggs.

Now you might be wondering why am I writing about just hard boiled eggs to me I don’t think its practical to get up every morning at 5:30 and make a huge breakfast, there are some people out there who will I am just not one of them especially at 5:30 am.  So when I wake up I walk out the bedroom and I put a pot of water on the stove and I add the 2 eggs to it.  After that I simply go back and start getting ready for work my normal daily routine.  In about 5 minutes time the water is boiling at this point so I let the eggs boil for 2 minutes with a lid on the pan.  Now comes the magic, after 2 minutes I remove the pan from the heat but I leave the lid on.  I let that sit there for 12 minutes, during this time I already have the shower running so I jump in the shower while the eggs are just sitting in their hot water bath.  That’s it when I get out I run water over them and peel them and then eat.

This to me is the most efficient breakfast I can make especially if I am running a little behind for work.

Another cool thing if you are up for it is make a batch of home made cereal you can find one that I posted here that helps for days when you just simply can’t cook.  It is so important to eat breakfast even if it is small or just a simple piece of fruit you have to get something in you to jump start your system.  Its better to eat than to starve because your body will horde the food when it gets it if it is starving.

Just some food for thought :).  Sorry its not my typical post but to me its a bit practical every once and a while to explain how I actually live my journey as a person that has an actual job instead of being a professional blog writer.
