Spicy Scrambled Eggs-n-Oats

1 whole egg
3 egg whites
1 tbsp water
1/3 cup dry rolled oats
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
1 cup fresh chopped spinach
1 tbsp salsa
  1. In a bowl, whisk together egg, egg whites and water until frothy.
  2. Stir in the oats and pepper. Allow to soak for 2 minutes.
  3. Coat a skillet with cooking spray, then wipe away the excess spray with a paper towel. Heat the skillet over medium heat. Add the egg mixture and cook for 30 seconds.
  4. Add spinach. Cook, stirring, for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the eggs are firm.
    Remove to a plate and top with salsa.
You can rotate this breakfast between spicy day and sweet day. Sweet option: Nix the spinach, salsa and pepper, and add  cinnamon, fruit and agave nectar
