Notes
If you you’re not watching your fat intake, you may use 12 whole eggs in place of the 4 eggs + 12 egg whites.
To save money, you could leave out the chicken or bacon.
Feel free to experiment with different veggies — frozen spinach or some cooked broccoli would work well.
And a little added shredded cheese would be delicious too!
