Today, we had that snow storm I’ve been asking for all winter….it was supposed to be pretty massive. Our area was in the 8-10 inch zone, it was exciting and annoying and I cancelled my Valentine segment on my local news station because I figured it would be pretty treacherous driving into the city. School was cancelled. Anticipation was high and then…..nothing. Well, not nothing but very little. Just a few inches, maybe four? So little, my husband wasn’t sure if he should use the snowblower. But it’s a snowblower so even if you have 1 inch, pull that baby out. Right? The whole storm was a bit of a letdown and I’m hoping for another….now, still…or an early spring, which would be way better. But I’m going to be real and remind myself that it’s only February and we have a long ways to go before I see the first daffodil poking through the ground.

BUT not so long that I shouldn’t keep getting my butt on the treadmill, which I’ve been doing pretty religiously! (I think I just hurt my arm patting myself on the back.) And I’m trying to eat a little better, cutting out the wine, salt and sugar just a bit.  I found that if I have some things available to eat before I get too hungry I have a successful week. And since I hate trying to find something to eat after a workout, I started really hitting it hard with the meal prepping….things like these breakfast burritos and Freezer Breakfast Sandwiches are such lifesavers when I’m starving in the morning. I also started making these Easy Denver Omelet Egg Muffins and they’re so good, they’re hard to keep around!

I’m a huge fan of the Denver omelet…which is just an omelet with peppers, onions, ham and cheese. They’re simple but flavor packed and when I order them at the local diner I can taste the butter……like seriously, it’s so much butter it fills you up and weighs you down for hours. So, I wanted that same great flavor combo in an easy and healthy breakfast that’s ready in seconds. Literally. Like 30 seconds in the microwave. Yes, really.

I make these Easy Denver Omelet Egg Muffins in a standard sized muffin tin and bake them in the oven. They come together in a snap and last about a week in the fridge….unless the vultures eat all of them first. They’re fantastic with a glass of Cold Brew Coffee or a chilled fruit salad, either way….this is an omelet you can eat on the go! I used to take these to work with me all the time and I can’t believe I’m just getting back to making them now. Such a huge timesaver! You will love them, I promise.
