Scrambled eggs and ham doesn't have to be loaded up with fat and calories. Using egg whites, lean ham, and whole wheat toast turns a traditionally heavy breakfast into a much lighter one that's easy enough for a stress-free morning.

ingredients
3 egg whites 1/2 cup egg substitute 1 tablespoon fat free butter 1/4 pound extra lean ham, diced 6 slices toasted whole wheat bread, optional
directions
Whisk together the egg whites and egg substitute together in a bowl.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the butter. When melted, add the egg mixture and ham and stir constantly until the eggs are scrambled to the desired consistency.
Serve the scrambled eggs and ham immediately with toast, if desired.
I assume the use of the real egg whites in this is for texture? If you wanted to cut calories/fat further you could use something like sliced mushrooms in place of the ham. If you can't have "real" scrambled eggs I'd say this was a pretty decent alternative.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
